Faith & Finance

The Future of FaithFi with Afton Phillips


Listen Later

As we step into a new year, one question guides everything we do: How can we better serve believers who want to manage God’s money, God’s way?

At FaithFi, that question has shaped a season of prayer, growth, and fresh vision. Today on Faith & Finance, we sat down with Afton Phillips, our Head of Content, to talk about what God has been doing—and where He’s leading us next.

What follows is a look at the remarkable momentum of the past year and the exciting resources coming in the year ahead.

A Year of Remarkable Growth and God’s Provision

The past year has been one of extraordinary growth for FaithFi—growth that reflects a deep hunger for biblical wisdom applied to everyday financial decisions.

  • Our podcast audience grew by 55,000 listeners, bringing the total to more than 880,000 listeners.
  • Faith & Finance is now heard on over 2,000 radio stations nationwide.
  • Our FaithFi Partner community grew by nearly 600 partners, enabling us to expand our reach and deepen our impact.

Behind the scenes, God also provided through new team members, a completely redesigned website filled with original content, and countless stories from listeners whose lives are being shaped by Scripture-centered financial guidance. It’s a powerful reminder that timeless biblical wisdom still meets very real, modern needs.

Looking Ahead: What Excites Us Most

Momentum invites vision—and the year ahead is full of it.

Our Ultimate Treasure Devotional

One of the most anticipated resources is a new devotional, Our Ultimate Treasure, written to help believers understand financial stewardship through the lens of the gospel. While it officially releases in 2026, anyone who becomes a FaithFi Partner by December 31 will receive it as a thank-you gift.

This devotional is designed to anchor financial decisions in eternal perspective—reminding us that money is a tool, not our treasure.

A Brand-New FaithFi App Experience

Early next year, we’re launching FaithFi 5.0, a completely redesigned app experience that makes practical money management simpler—and spiritual formation deeper.

At the heart of the update is a new feature called Financial Rhythms. These rhythms are daily, intentional practices that help align financial habits with God’s truth through Scripture, reflection, and action. The goal isn’t just better budgets, but transformed hearts.

Alongside these rhythms, the app will include:

  • Interactive studies and devotionals
  • Audio versions of select resources
  • A growing digital library, including articles from Faithful Steward magazine
Faithful Steward Magazine and a Special New Edition

FaithFi now releases Faithful Steward magazine quarterly, each issue filled with original, thoughtful content. In the coming year, we’re also preparing our first-ever special edition, focused entirely on women and wealth.

This issue will build on findings from the nationwide Women, Wealth, and Faith study and explore how more women are stewarding God’s resources with wisdom, confidence, and faith.

Introducing FaithFi Field Guides: A New Resource Category

One of the most exciting developments is the launch of an entirely new product category in 2026: FaithFi Field Guides.

These workbook-style guides are designed to help believers thoughtfully answer the questions financial advisors hear most often:

  • How much is enough?
  • How do I give intentionally?
  • How do I prepare the next steward?

Each Field Guide will combine biblical framing, reflective questions, and practical worksheets—tools that can be used individually, as a couple, in small groups, or alongside a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA). Rather than prescribing one-size-fits-all answers, these guides are meant to help people discern their own next faithful step.

Across all our resources, the heart remains the same: to connect biblical truth with real-life application in ways that reduce overwhelm and encourage confidence. By breaking big decisions into manageable steps, we hope to remind believers that they’re not alone—and that God is faithful as they seek to honor Him.

Powered by FaithFi Partners

None of this would be possible without FaithFi Partners. Their generosity fuels every broadcast, devotional, app feature, and study. Partners receive:

  • Premium access to the FaithFi app
  • Faithful Steward magazine, each quarter
  • New devotionals and books delivered to their door

You can become a partner by visiting FaithFi.com/Give and making a $35 monthly or $400 annual donation.

Right now, every gift is matched dollar-for-dollar through December 31, doubling its impact as we equip even more families to live as faithful stewards.

A Prayer for the Year Ahead

As we look forward, our prayer is simple: that you would grow in confidence as a steward of God’s resources, resting in His faithfulness and wisdom. The future is bright—not because of innovation alone, but because God continues to guide, provide, and transform lives through His truth.

The best is yet to come.
