#65: Investing as if Hope Mattered: The Church, Finance, and the Imagination to Act

In this episode, Joy reflects on the deep connections between faith, finance, and imagination - exploring how churches and faith communities can play a transformative role in shaping economic systems that reflect their values.

From the wake of 9/11 to the founding of Criterion Institute, Joy traces the journey of learning to “invest as if hope mattered,” challenging listeners to see finance not as neutral, but as a tool for justice and systemic change. Through stories of faith-driven action and institutional courage, this episode invites us to imagine what’s possible when belief and capital move in the same direction.
