Wisdom and Wealth Wednesday When working with a financial advisor, the best place to start is with honesty. You don’t need to hide your situation or feel ashamed. Real progress begins when you come as you are. Good advisors walk with you, guide you, and help you take steps forward from right where you stand. In the same way, Jesus invites us to come to Him just as we are - no perfection required. 📖 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 The freedom to be honest is powerful, both in finances and in faith! See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

In the financial world, advisors are trained to always have an “elevator speech”—a clear, simple way to explain what they do and why it matters. The goal? To be ready at any moment to share their purpose and value. As Christians, we’re called to do something very similar. Scripture tells us: “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” — 1 Peter 3:15 Just like advisors prepare their pitch, we should prepare our testimony. Not a long, complicated explanation—but a short, authentic way to share the hope we have in Jesus. Because the world needs to hear it. 📖 What would your “elevator speech” of faith sound like?
