“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.” — Proverbs 12:15

Wise financial decisions don’t happen in a vacuum—they often require wise counsel. But how do you know if the person giving you advice shares your convictions and values? Brian Cochran joins us today to explore how biblical wisdom should shape not just our decisions, but the voices we trust.

Brian Cochran is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®), and also serves as the Chief Stewardship Officer at John Moore Associates. 

At John Moore Associates, a recently celebrated milestone tells a powerful story—over $50 million in charitable giving facilitated through the families they serve. This achievement isn't about accolades or financial performance. It reflects a deeper belief: money is a gift from God, but it was never meant to be the ultimate goal for an individual. It's a tool designed for Kingdom impact.

Certified Kingdom Advisors® take a distinct approach to financial planning. While they certainly aim to help clients grow their wealth, they are equally—if not more—committed to helping them give it away with wisdom and purpose. The core question isn’t just, “How can you accumulate more?” but, “How can you steward it more faithfully?”

Their mission is to walk alongside families and help them become wise and generous stewards of the resources God has entrusted to them. That vision informs every client meeting, every piece of advice, and every long-term strategy. They don’t see themselves merely as business professionals—they see themselves as called to influence families toward biblically grounded financial decisions that reflect God’s character and priorities.

They refer to this role as being “stewards of stewards.” Their job is to help others manage God’s money in a way that aligns with His will—not just to build bigger portfolios, but to foster hearts that reflect His generosity.

Although financial planning encompasses technical elements such as taxes, investments, and estate strategies, it is far more than just numbers. Financial planning is as much an art as it is a science.

That’s because personal values, priorities, and convictions ultimately shape every financial decision. Two families with identical balance sheets may receive vastly different advice depending on the worldview and values of their advisor. Even the most technically sound recommendations can lead a client astray if they don’t align with their faith or purpose.

Families excited to step into greater generosity have occasionally faced resistance—not from financial limitations, but from professionals who didn’t understand why anyone would want to give so much away. Similarly, some clients have discovered their portfolios include investments in industries that conflict with their convictions, such as pornography, abortion, or addictive products. These disconnects are more common than many realize.

When an advisor doesn’t understand a client’s “why,” they may unintentionally work against it.

By contrast, working with an advisor who shares a client’s biblical values can be transformational. Rather than resist generosity, they champion it. They help clients move beyond conventional financial goals and pursue eternal ones—cheering them on as they give, invest, and plan with Kingdom purpose.

This values alignment also fosters deeper conversations about contentment and purpose. Advisors who understand the biblical call to stewardship help clients shift from an accumulation mindset to one that asks, “How much is enough?” That change

Whatever happened with those New Year’s resolutions? Still working out? Still on that diet program? Well, getting started is one thing, but soon the real question is: “How do you keep it going?” Join Chip and find out how to keep first things first.

The Problem: Many start well, but few finish well.

The Answer: Biblical Accountability

• Definition: Biblical Accountability is enlisting the support of those who love me to help me keep my commitments to God.
• Its Power: Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

The Need: Why accountability is essential for spiritual success

Five Reasons:

1. Because we never outgrow the need for PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY. -1 Corinthians 9:34-27
2. Because past successes are no guarantee of FUTURE FAITHFULNESS. -1 Corinthians 10:1-5
3. Because we constantly underestimate the power of our own SINFUL PASSIONS. -1 Corinthians 10:6-11
4. Because we constantly overestimate our ability to handle TEMPTATION. -1 Corinthians 10:12
5. Because we naively believe our struggles and temptations are UNIQUE. -1 Corinthians 10:13

Summary: "Therefore, my beloved, flee from IDOLATRY!” -1 Corinthians 10:14

The Means: “How to” develop accountability in relationships:

• It begins at HOME.
• In an atmosphere of LOVE.
• It must be voluntary and by PERMISSION.
• It must be SPECIFIC, not generic.
• It must be REGULAR, not sporadic.
• No more than 4 PEOPLE.

What do you do when you have vivid memories of being mistreated as a child? The Biblical approach is to lovingly confront your offender with the goal of reconciliation. I you fail to do this, the hurt and anger will be trapped inside of you and cause you to become bitter.
