Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) brings a mix of changes that will affect how generous givers plan. Some provisions create stability and new opportunities, while others, which begin in 2026, will slightly reduce deductions – making now a strategic moment to act.
Giving in 2025 can help you capture the greatest advantage and put more of your resources to work for the causes you care about. Read more to find out how to make the most of this window of opportunity.
Charitable trusts can be an effective tool for long-term impact. But without careful planning, the cost and complexity may outweigh the benefits. Advisors, join us for “Giving options with charitable trusts,” our next Inside Giving webinar, on Wednesday, September 10, at 3 p.m. ET. Gain a working knowledge of charitable trusts and get equipped to assess whether a charitable trust could fit your client’s goals, while earning one hour of CFP® and CKA® credit.
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to find your significance or security in money, you know it’s a common struggle. The good news is Jesus offers a way for us to find freedom from this trap in one of his most famous teachings. Listen to Tim Keller as he explains how we can break free from the power of money and find a deeper, more lasting joy.
Saturday 7 is brought to you by our team at the National Christian Foundation (NCF). We would love to help you create your Giving Strategy™, so you can experience more joy and adventure as you pursue a life of generosity. Find an NCF location near you at ncfgiving.com/locations.
