The Checkbook Cop-Out | Episode 004

The Checkbook Cop-Out  Why "Donor" Could Be The Lowest Level of Kingdom Leadership. Writing a charitable check is sometimes the easiest thing a successful entrepreneur can do. But what if handing over cash is actually keeping you from something greater. For years, Christian business owners have been taught to operate with split personalities: we use our business acumen in the marketplace, but we leave that same business smarts at the door and act purely on emotion when it comes to Kingdom impact. We abdicate the responsibility of the outcome to exhausted non-profit leaders. In Episode 4 of Capital & Calling, Myrna Miott challenges the traditional identity of the "Donor." Discover why high-capacity leaders are being called to a graduated level of giving. Step into the elite boardroom of Venture Philanthropy. God doesn't just want your capital—He wants to use your business genius. Step Into the Story: If you are an accredited investor ready to graduate from traditional charity and deploy your capital with precision, we invite you to join us. 🔗 View Our Active Projects & Schedule a Private 15-Minute Capital Briefing: www.BethelRC.com [http://www.BethelRC.com] This is a public episode.

The Theology of Dirt | Commercial Real Estate & Venture Philanthropy | Episode 003

The Theology of Dirt - Why True Kingdom Impact Requires Owning Commercial Real Estate As Christian business owners, we are quick to integrate our faith into our company culture, but we often leave our capital sitting dormant or deployed in a broken charitable system. We pray for the prosperity of our cities, but we let outside developers own the dirt. In Episode 3 of Capital & Calling, Myrna Miott dives into the "Theology of Dirt." Looking closely at the mandates in Isaiah 58 and Jeremiah 29, we uncover a profound truth: true Kingdom impact isn't just about giving money away—it’s about building, owning, and protecting the physical foundations of our communities. Discover why becoming a "Repairer of Broken Walls" in the modern era means pooling capital to acquire commercial real estate. When you secure the dirt, you dictate the impact, permanently protect vulnerable businesses, and generate a fixed financial yield. Step Into the Story: We are continuously evaluating and funding commercial projects to protect vulnerable communities.

Why Traditional Charity is Broken | Episode 002

If writing a check to a non-profit sometimes feels like throwing money into a black hole, you aren't a bad Christian. You're just a good business person recognizing bad math. For decades, we have forced our local charities to survive on a one-way street of capital. We write checks to help community assets pay their rising rent, but the well eventually runs dry, and the neighborhood remains just as vulnerable to displacement tomorrow as it was today. It’s time to stop renting our impact and start owning it. In Episode 2 of Capital & Calling, Myrna Miott pulls back the curtain on the non-profit sector and explains why the traditional giving model is mathematically flawed. Discover how the shift to Venture Philanthropy allows accredited investors to pool capital, buy the physical buildings that house vital community organizations, and generate a fixed financial yield.

Faithful Entrepreneur: The Finish Line Fallacy | Episode 001

Financial independence is an incredible milestone, but it is a terrible finish line. Once your family is taken care of, what exactly are you building? For decades, successful Christian founders have treated wealth as a two-step process: make as much money as you can in the marketplace, and then give a percentage away to charity. But traditional charity is often a one-way street of capital. We write checks to help vulnerable community assets pay their rising rent, but the well eventually runs dry, and the neighborhood remains just as at-risk as it was yesterday. In this inaugural episode of Capital & Calling, host Myrna Miott shares her evolution from a master connector in the business and non-profit worlds to the Principal of Bethel Redemptive Capital. We are unpacking a new paradigm: Venture Philanthropy. Discover how accredited investors are shifting from writing checks to pooling capital, buying commercial real estate, and becoming the landlord. Using our active Cocoa, FL childcare campus as a case study, learn how securing the dirt allows us to permanently protect a community, repair the broken walls of our cities, and generate a real financial yield. You shouldn't have to choose between a smart financial return and a massive Kingdom impact. You can do both.
