Banking With Conscience

 Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own. 

As a Christian parent, I try my best to lead by example. We pray for Christ and Christian values to permeate our lives- in every action, every word, and every moment with our children. We let them see us reading our bibles, having discussions about the bible, watching sermons, discussing decisions we must make, and enjoy our nightly family prayers. 

One of the things my husband and I try to pay attention to is the companies that we spend our money with. We don't want our money to support causes that we do not agree with. That is not always easy to do, but AdelFi Bank has us covered. 


Finding companies to work with is hard enough, but finding a bank with Christian values we thought would be impossible. We did finally find a Christian bank and were ecstatic! AldelFi Bank is a top Christian credit union and we are happy to have finally found them. 



Do you know where your bank gives and invests its money? Does it align with your values? By placing your financial resources with AdelFi, you’re uniting your finances with other believers to advance Christian values with empathy and compassion. AdelFi supports thousands of Christian organizations worldwide that spread the Gospel with AdelFi’s commitment to giving back 10% of its profits every year to support Christian. Whether you’re starting a family, running a business, or serving a non-profit or ministry, AdelFi has products and services that align with your financial goals and Christian values. Partner with like-minded people and still access the technology and services that makes day-to-day finance transactions easy.

When I hear of a store or organization that I support spending money to support causes that I do not align with, it really breaks my heart. I feel like I've done that horrible thing and it really effects me. I know I innocently supported, but I'd rather know where my money is going and that my money is supporting causes with Christian values. 



Recycling Christian Dollars – In a recent study by AdelFi, it found that young Christian consumers gave nearly 3x more than non-Christians. However, when supporting business that aligned with what they aligned with their beliefs/causes, they were no different than non-Christians.  And in some instances, non-Christians cared more than Christians about doing business with organizations that aligned with their non-Christian beliefs.  This was mainly due to the fact that there aren’t many Christian businesses marketing its values.  At AdelFi, we believe that as stewards of God’s money, we support fellow Christian businesses and understand the need to promote the intersection of faith and finances.  Daily purchase interactions should have a form of tithing daily.  Where you bank has a ripple effect on how resources get used or recycled within the Christian community.  Banking with AdelFi means more support to fellow Christian consumers, businesses, churches, non-profits, and causes. In fact, AdelFi is a not-for-profit credit union, where the money doesn’t go to wall street, but to God’s streets – where the Gospel is spread domestically and internationally. 

When my Mother-in-law was diagnosed with breast cancer and we were looking for help to pay for her treatments because she didn't have insurance, we realized how many organizations do not actually "put money where their mouth is." There are many organizations that only 1% of their donations go to the actual study and treatment of breast cancer. Finding this out blew my mind and I started researching more. I started looking for more businesses and organizations that align with my values. Christ centered banking is something I never thought I would find. Thank you AldelFi for giving me confidence in where my money is going.
