Align your finances with your Christian faith

Too often, unattended or mismanaged finances result in missed opportunities, costly mistakes, and sadly, even relational fallout. Through Christian faith-based Financial Life Planning, Investment Management, and Survivor Assistance services, we help you steward your resources well and make wise financial decisions.

LifeGuide’s comprehensive services are designed for those with $450k+ in investable assets.

Our Services

Financial Life Planning

Comprehensive, biblical Financial Life Planning is at the heart of the work we do at LifeGuide. While many planning processes simply help clients maximize their net worth, we’ve designed our Financial Life Planning to help you align your faith and finances and make an eternal, Kingdom impact with your life and money. Your plan:

  • Inspires renewed energy and passion to live the kind of life God has in store for you
  • Helps you cut through the noise and ruthlessly prioritize what’s most important in your life
  • Reduces fear and anxiety by providing a clear roadmap of the journey ahead and a team in place to help you navigate it

  • Aligns with your personal values so you can invest according to your convictions
  • Opportunistically responds to material market swings and dynamically adjusts as your life unfolds

Frequently Asked Questions:
Our Services

How are your advisors paid?

LifeGuide advisors are paid a salary and do not receive any commissions or kickbacks. As a fee-only, fiduciary advisor, our only source of income is the fees we charge for our services.

Do you receive any kickbacks or commissions from any products you recommend/sell?

Not a cent. We are a NAPFA-certified fee-only firm, meaning our only source of income is the fees we charge for our services. We don’t receive any commissions or kickbacks, ever.

I don’t have $450k to invest. Can I still be a LifeGuide client?

Our comprehensive services are designed for those with $450k+ investable assets. Click here to view services and resources designed specifically for those with less than $450k.

 

Are there any additional “hidden” fees I should know about? How much does it really cost?

We believe it’s important to know upfront not only what you’re getting from your advisor, but how much it will cost. That’s why we’ve put our fee structure front and center on our website. Following your complimentary Exploration Meeting (when we have a complete picture of your unique situation) we’ll provide you with a personalized proposal that will outline exactly how much you can expect to pay.

I don’t need planning. Can I just have you manage my account?

In order to know what to do with your money, we need to know what you want your money to do. That’s why, currently, we only offer investment management as part of our comprehensive planning services.

Can you help me with my insurance needs?

We include insurance planning as part of our comprehensive Financial Life Planning process. While we can provide quote recommendations, we do not place insurance policies.

How is your biblical Financial Life Planning service different than the typical goal-setting and values-based planning everyone seems to be doing?

We’re excited to see many within the industry adopting goals- and values-based financial planning. Yet, while many financial planning processes can help you maximize your net worth, they often fall short of helping you be a faithful and wise steward. Our Financial Life Planning process has been adapted from leading planning frameworks and seeks to provide truly comprehensive, biblically-based Financial Life Planning.

Since working with Zak, Matt, and team they have met and surpassed my expectations of working with financial advisors. They take the time to really know their clients which gives me every confidence that not just my financial goals are well understood but also my comfort level. They regularly provide updates and have always been available to answer any questions or to explain options within my portfolio. Would not have been able to transition into retirement without their guidance. I depend on their advice before making financial decisions. Most recently their help with going onto Medicare was most valuable. To summarize my experience with LifeGuide, they really care about us both personally and financially.— WayneAs posted in Wayne's Google Review
