Christin Fejervary, VP at NCF, on Trends Among Next Generation Givers (Ep. 166)

Christin Fejervary serves at the National Christian Foundation, where she helps understand generous Christians and the patterns shaping their stewardship. Coming from a background in research before joining NCF, Christin has helped execute numerous large studies which have helped shape the current understanding of Christian givers.   This past year, Christin helped lead NCF in some of the most comprehensive research on millennial Christians through the NextGen Stewardship Study, a comprehensive study focused on how young Christians, particularly Millennials and Gen Z, approach wealth and generosity. Christin explains the enormity of the Great Wealth Transfer, projected at $124 trillion to be passed on to these generations by 2048, and the need to understand their unique characteristics and motivations.    Her work highlights how agency, shared family values, and hands-on involvement are shaping this rising generation, as well as the unique opportunities emerging as women inherit a growing share of global wealth. She also describes the practical ways families can cultivate unity through generosity and why younger Christians are eager to bring their whole lives, not just their finances, into God’s work.   Whether you are a next generation giver or are navigating how to enable the next generation yourself, you’ll find this episode packed with insight.   Major Topics Include: • How agency shapes stewardship and spiritual growth • Differences between wealth creators, inheritors, and hybrids • Generational contrasts in trust, involvement, and giving patterns • The rising influence and needs of next-gen women • Family unity formed through shared passions and giving • Tips for preparing for the Great Wealth Transfer wisely • Practicing stewardship through small, hands-on decisions • Unlocking whole-life generosity beyond liquid assets • Advice for organizations who are trying to engage multiple generations • God’s invitation to women in stewardship QUOTES TO REMEMBER • “I was learning how to pursue a relationship with Jesus in the everyday. It wasn’t just about going to church on Sundays. It was really about bringing Jesus into every part of my life.” • “In my 20s, when I started to understand this relationship with Jesus, it was something where I could actually have conversations with Jesus and ask for help.” • “God just showed up. He provided so much in those early years when we didn’t feel like we had much money.” • “Faith is the guiding principle in stewarding wealth for all generations.” • “The attribute that was most correlated to positivity about wealth was seeing it as responsibility, that it’s about God’s work in the world and joining God’s work in the world.” • “Taking action helps your faith. It helps you grow closer to your family. It helps you grow closer to your purpose.” • “Women at large and the cohort of next-gen women are more likely to be collaborative, they’re more likely to do giving circles, and they’re looking for a journey more than a transaction.” • “Women and mothers are the biggest influences of generosity in the home.” • “Women, especially women inheritors, struggle to find their voice. They don’t feel like they have a voice at the table of wealth transfer and those conversations.” • “Younger generations want to see the data. They want to see the impact and the numbers. They want to get personally involved because they feel they can make the difference.” • “We’re seeing more and more people give from the ninety percent of their wealth, not just the ten percent they hold in liquid assets.” • “I think God is showing up in tangible ways and urging people to give from all of their wealth and not just their liquid assets.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW • National Christian Foundation (https://www.ncfgiving.com/) (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills (https://www.finishlinepledge.com/epis...) ) • The NCF Next Gen Stewardship Study (https://www.ncfgiving.com/stories/nex...) • Julie Wilson, President of Women Doing Well (https://womendoingwell.org/) (see our past interview here (https://www.finishlinepledge.com/epis...) ) • Generous Giving (https://generousgiving.org/) (see our interviews with cofounders Todd Harper (https://www.finishlinepledge.com/epis...) and David Wills (https://www.finishlinepledge.com/epis...) and CEO, April Chapman (https://www.finishlinepledge.com/epis...) ) • Impact Foundation (https://www.impactfoundation.org/) (see our interview with Founder, Aimee Minnich (https://www.finishlinepledge.com...
