The Capital Steward Podcast Transistor (https://transistor.fm) https://feeds.transistor.fm/the-capital-steward-podcast The Capital Stewards emerges from a three-year research collaboration at The Kirby Laing Centre for Public Theology in Cambridge, England. Each month, our group has met to wrestle with the questions where Christian worldview, capital, and stewardship collide — and now we’re inviting you into the conversation. See more at capitalstewards.co. Brandon Giella of Snapmarket.co is joined by Erik Averill of AWM, The Athlete Family Office, Ben Nicka of Oxford University, and Matt Galyon, an independent consultant, among others. The group is advised by theologian Craig Bartholomew. This is not another faith-and-finance show. It’s a working conversation among practitioners and scholars who have spent years asking what it actually means to steward capital under God’s economy — and where the dominant assumptions of optimization, return, and productivity break down against the biblical story. Every episode begins with a single question. We think out loud, draw on Scripture, and invite you in. © 2026 Snapmarket LLC 722c6da7-92ce-59b2-96cc-03b6c7268513 yes en Wed, 08 Jul 2026 21:21:14 -0500 Wed, 08 Jul 2026 21:22:10 -0500 https://capitalstewards.co https://img.transistorcdn.com/hMCSCAEMzJo-JoyJTII-cH8uoybXNQgDE5td1X3hKYs/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:1400/h:1400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hMDRk/MzNkYzFkN2VhZTdh/Y2RiZDZkOTRlODM0/NGRjZC5wbmc.jpg The Capital Steward Podcast https://capitalstewards.co episodic The Capital Stewards The Capital Stewards emerges from a three-year research collaboration at The Kirby Laing Centre for Public Theology in Cambridge, England.

Drawing on sports and institutional investing, they discuss how productivity, data, financialization, and Enlightenment-era rationalism shape modern markets and can disconnect investing from purpose. They emphasize fruitfulness as a holistic biblical category, connect money to anxiety and trust in God, propose “total return” as financial plus impact return, and frame stewardship as investing for enduring spiritual and communal flourishing.
