I help families and small businesses plan for the future by crafting a life and estate plan. 

Together, we’ll plan for what we know will happen (death) as well as what might happen. We’ll plan to protect assets from creditors, predators, and spenders.  We’ll maximize family harmony.

I also help individuals and families with the buying and selling of real estate as well as adoptions.

It's unbelievable to witness the revival of faith in America. 
Not long ago it felt like the most basic truths in life were under attack. 

- What constitutes a life? 
- What is a women? 
- What does it mean to be human? 
- Does my sexuality matter? 
- What makes life valuable?

In the wake of these attacks on truth came questions from a curious generation demanding answers...

Thanks be to God, Christianity has been answering these questions for thousands of years. 

Now this curious generation is finding the answers in Jesus and being swept up in his grace and goodness. 

Blessed be the name of the Lord!

Generational wealth does NOT have to cost Millions of dollars. 

It DOES have to be radically intentional.

Just another quick reminder to keep going.
You’re building something beautiful.

graphical user interface, text, application, chat or text message

Tom got promoted. Income: $185K to $280K.
Within 6 months:
New house. $4,800/m (was $2,400).
New cars. $1,200/m (was $450).
Country club. $1,500/m.

Lifestyle increase: $4,650/m. 
His raise after taxes: $4,900/m.

One yr later his income is up over 50%

But his giving is flat. His savings not grown.
His stress is higher than before. 

Same prison just new countertops.

His friend Marcus: Same promotion. 
But he paused. Prayed. Acted with intention.

Waited 3 years to upgrade anything.

Year 1-3: Kept house. Kept cars. Invested and gave difference. Income continued to grow. 
Year 4: Upgraded modestly. Paid 40% down on house.

Marcus saved $260K. Gave $85K. Mortgage $2,800/month.

Tom saved $18K. Locked into every payment.

Here’s the wisdom:
When income jumps, lifestyle wants to jump immediately.

Wait 3 years. 
Let the raise compound. Then decide. 
What’s actually important will become clear. 

You’ll either realize you don’t need it—or buy it with cash and keep your peace.

DM me. We help families navigate raises without lifestyle traps.

She quit her $55k job when daycare hit $1,800/month.
She was bringing home $3,200 after taxes.

Daycare ate $1,800.
Gas, work clothes, lunches: $400.

She was working full-time to net $1k/m.
And watch her kids be raised by others.

But here’s what happened next:

1. They got radically intentional about spending. (Cut $500/m in spending)

2. Husband had more focus, home support and opportunity. (Increased income $1k/m)

No more daycare pickup panic.
No more sick kid scrambles.
No more “who’s handling this” stress.

His career accelerated because hers stepped back.

The math: Lost $55k salary, gained $20k in sales/ business growth, spent $32k/yr less.

Net gain: $500/m post tax, more present mom.
 
The two-career trap makes everyone stressed and broke.

Sometimes one focused career beats two frazzled ones.

The 1950s model might actually be the smart financial play in 2025

Jack Ziegler III, CFP®

Christian Families CFP® Accomplish Radically Intentional Goals Generous families 35-55 See my Featured Section for Resources 👇 Read my bio to see if we're a fit.

From $150K to $600K in 3 Years
Year 1: Hit $150K. Finally made it.
Year 2: Revenue doubled. Income: $300K.
Should feel amazing. Felt chaotic.
Year 3: Hit $600K.

Blessed beyond measure. 
Completely overwhelmed.

Here’s what nobody tells you about rapid growth:

Spreadsheets can’t keep up. 
Last year’s budget is irrelevant.

Do we move? Upgrade cars? 
How much should we give? Save? Spend?

And as a Christian, the weight is different.

Deeply grateful. 
Also crushed by responsibility.

“What if I squander this? 
What if it ends and I upgraded too much?”

Some nights I can’t sleep—not from fear of losing it, from the weight of stewarding it.

“Find a CFP with kingdom values. 
Allow them to guide you through the noise.”

A helpful tip is to wait 1 year before changing lifestyle. 

Let growth fund giving, saving, future first.

God didn’t bless you w chaos and w/o purpose.
He blessed you with opportunity.

DM me. I’ve walked this. 
I help others walk it too.

God bless you, 

Jack 🙏

“Jesus, I know it hurts. Thank you for saving me. I love you”

- John Paul Ziegler, 2 yrs old, Lent 2026

A special moment watching our two year old pray and reflect on what Christ did for us. 

I’m going to be praying with his little meditation for a while. 

He also added: “Jesus has crazy hair”

My client wanted to increase their giving from 10% to 15%.

Their financial advisor said they couldn’t afford it.

I told him, he couldn’t afford not to. 
When God calls, we follow. 

Here’s the math most advisors miss: 

Generosity is often a wealth multiplier.

Families that give more actually accumulate more.

Not because God rewards generosity with money (though He might).

But because generous people make better financial decisions.

→ They waste less on status purchases
→ They’re more intentional with spending
→ They attract better business relationships
→ They sleep better (stress costs money)

This family increased giving to 15%. 

Other families grew from 1-10%. 

Their networth will grow faster than ever. 
Because when you hold money loosely, it flows to you freely.

Most wealthy Christians have a “giving ceiling”—a percentage they’ll never exceed.
But what if generosity had no ceiling?

What if the question wasn’t 
“How much can I afford to give?” 
but “How much can I afford to keep?”

The families with the deepest peace aren’t the ones who’ve saved the most.

They’re the ones who’ve given the most.

Your wealth isn’t your security—your generosity is.

The more you give away, the more you receive what money can’t buy.

What would change if you removed your giving ceiling?

God bless you,

Jack 🙏

Two become one. Except with finances?
 
Too many couples:
- Separate accounts
- Separate goals
- Separate dreams
- Separate missions
 
Then wonder why they feel divided.
 
Money reveals hearts. 
Hearts shape marriages.

If anyone of the above is divided, you and your kids will feel it.
 
My time… Her time
My work … Her work
My money … Her money
My ministry … Her ministry
My friends … Her friends
My family … Her family
 
This will divide you overtime.
 
What if instead:
 
Our time
Our work
Our money
Our ministry
Our friends
Our family
 
Unity in finances = Unity in marriage
 
It's not about control.
It's about connection.
 
Want a stronger marriage?
 
Start with financial unity.
 
God bless you,
 
 Jack 🙏

A family saves $7,000 every month and just booked Italy.

Without touching their emergency fund.

How does a family with high income still feel financially stretched?

It’s not about income.
It’s about intention.

Working with high earning families, I’ve seen it repeatedly:

→ The VP of sales making $750k with nothing left at year-end
→ The business owner with $5M net worth but monthly cash stress
→ The executive who can’t increase giving because “there’s nothing extra”

Money flows to what we value.
But only when we direct it there first.

“Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops.” (Proverbs 3:9)

Firstfruits.
Not leftovers.

Last September, I sat with a couple to review their spending.

→ $24,000 annually on restaurants
→ $36,000 untracked miscellaneous purchases
→ $9,700 on subscriptions they barely used

Nothing sinful.
Just unintentional.

We rebuilt their cash flow around priorities:

→ Tithe came first (non-negotiable)
→ Then savings (paying their future selves)
→ Then intentional spending aligned with their values

Six months later?

Their giving increased by 40%.
Their savings rate doubled.

And they felt more financial peace than ever before.

No matter your income, the principle remains:
Direction, not amount, determines financial peace.

Cash flow planning isn’t about restriction.
It’s about liberation.

Now they can hit intentional goals like:

- Helping kids with their first home
- One on one trips with each kid at 16
- Generational generosity
- Funding education

Freedom to fund what truly matters.

What one area of your spending doesn’t align with your deepest values?

God Bless you,

Jack 🙏

401(k): $1.1M. 
House equity: $680K. 
Annual spend: unknown

Net worth outside retirement and house? $47K.

Everything locked up. Illiquid. Inaccessible.

What happened:

Kitchen $62K. Basement $48K. Deck $38K. 
Master bath $32K. Roof: $40k Fence: $12k
Car 1: $45k Car 2: $38k. Big trips: $50k

Every yr another project. 
Another major expense.
A life chasing the most recent fire. 

Here’s the pattern I see:

High income. 
Maxing 401(k). 
House appreciating.
Debt pay down.

But…

Zero liquidity. Zero flexibility. Zero options.

Too many families in a spot where they feel blessed in a beautiful home but trapped until 65+  to keep the dream alive. 

3 quick tips: 

1. Make a distinction between true savings, and deferred spending.
2. Create specific, intentional goals and priorities for the family. 
3. Define necessary true savings rates. 
4. Know the trade off cost before making the major purchase. 

Most people don’t know they’re shaving a decade off their retirement until it’s too late.

DM me to build a plan to make it all happen 

Ps. Just saw this picture and can’t believe how big my oldes is getting!

You’re money can go 4 places:

1. Spend it
2. Give it to charity 
3. Give it to kids
4. Taxes

My job is three fold:

1. Help you define how much to #1-3
2. Build an intentional plan to achieve it
3. Minimize #4 so it can go to #1-3

I help Christian families making great money but feel like they’re not being as intentional as they could be. 

My job is to build them a radically intentional money plan so they have clarity on the vision God has for their life and the path to get there. 

If that’s you… send me a message.

Net worth: $1.8M. Ages: 48 and 46.
Their advisors: “Keep maxing the 401(k). Don’t touch principal. Retire at 65. You’re doing great!”

But they didn’t feel great. 

Their actual goals:

Kids weddings help: $45K. 
Kids down payments: $100k.
Retire before 60. 

Time with kids and grandkids while young.

I don’t think the advisor was bad. 

I just don’t think he asked enough questions to find out what matters most. 

So they thought “there’s nothing we can do.”

Then they came to us. 
We ran the numbers.

Started prioritizing their actual life goals not maximize their wealth at 90.

Built a specific income plan for retirement.
Changed to minimum to get the match in 401k.

And guess what… still retiring 7 yrs earlier then told. 

Set pace for $50k for weddings and $100k for down payment helping.

Added in future Grandkids education $120K.
Completed $50k home renovation right away. 

Total given to life, family impact: $320k. 

And STILL on pace to retire at 58

Old advisors optimized for dying rich. 
Not living generously.

Kids would’ve inherited at 60+. 
When they least needed it.

Instead received at 28-31. 
And have grandma and grandpa fully present in their lives. 

This changes everything for multiple generations. 

Your kids don’t need your money at 65. They need it at 30.

DM me. We unlock generosity now, not just inheritance later.

I don’t want my kids lives to be easier
I want them to be closer to Jesus
To have more peace
To have more impact

So we’re prioritizing faith, church, retreats, prayer, community. 

We’re showing them not just telling them and integrating Christ into everything. 

But I also don’t want them to feel:

- Like they need to delay getting married or having kids OR
- Intense pressure to perform OR 
- Fear to take risks

So financially we’re preparing to help them buy a starter home and have a fund to launch a business. 

You can both form and prepare your kids for the work AND equip them to grow beyond what was possible for you. 

And without pressure. 

I’ve seen it many times with the families we serve.

Experienced it in my family. 

You just have to be intentional.

"Be a good steward."
We've heard it a thousand times.

But what does it really mean?

It's not just:

- Having a budget
- Saving for retirement
- Giving 10%

It's aligning every resource with God's vision for your life.

Seeing all as a blessing and multiplying that to give back to the Lord. 

When the Master returned in Jesus' parable,
He didn't ask if the servants saved the talents.
He asked what they did with them.

True stewardship is radically intentional.

It asks:

- What is God uniquely calling our family to?
- What is the purpose of this wealth?
- What goals if accomplished, will be evidence of our family mission lived?

We've experienced this transformation:

From managing money well…
To deploying resources purposefully

Every dollar.
Every minute.
Every relationship.
Every skill.

All aligned with the vision He's given us.

"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much."

Are you managing money?
Or stewarding a calling?

The difference is a purposeful life that blesses generations 

God bless you,

Jack 🙏

Dm me, “stewardship” and we’ll find a time to help you be radically intentional.

Your parents had $3M saved for retirement.
Yet they NEVER touched it. Lived off Social Security.
Living terrified of the what if's...

They grew up in the Great Depression.
They saw what long term care expenses did to their friends.
Money started as cash in the mattress. Literally.

Of course they were hoarding more than they needed to! 

They never wanted to knock on the kids door and ask for money.

They wanted so badly to leave something behind.
They wanted to be remembered. For their life to matter. 
They wanted to leave one final love letter:

"I love you more than you'll know. I want you to have this $50k to buy a house for your family. Please, remember me. Always stay close to Jesus."
- Grandpa. 

And that desire to be remembered well? It's beautiful.

But sitting on $3M while living like you're broke isn't a legacy.
It's fear dressed up as wisdom.

We need financial plans designed to give you permission to spend not just hoard wealth. 

Because the guy who dies with the most isn't the winner!

Spending requires a completely different plan than investing. 
One they never built.

Legacy isn't just the number you leave behind.

It's the life you lived. 
The generosity you showed. 
The memories you created.

Because that's the stuff your kids will actually remember.

If your plan doesn't prepare for the "what ifs" directly! 
You're going to hoard wealth. Don't do that.

You’re 52. Spreadsheet open. 
Running the numbers again.
“If we hit $3.5M by 62, we can retire.”
“Maybe $4M to be safe.”
“But what if healthcare costs more?”

The finish line keeps moving. 
The stress never stops.

Here’s what I’ve learned working with affluent Christian families:

Society sold us a lie about retirement — pick an age, hit a number, then you’re free.

But what if freedom isn’t about stopping?
What if it’s about following?

I’ve watched men hit their number and fall apart.

Because the number was never the point. The mission was.

What if instead of chasing a finish line, you focused on:

	∙	Building something that outlives you
	∙	Mentoring the next generation
	∙	Serving with the skills God gave you

The goal isn’t to stop working.
It’s to work from freedom, not for it.

The richest men I know aren’t the ones with the biggest portfolios.

They’re the ones still creating at 70. 
Still serving. Still engaged.

Your calling doesn’t retire at 62. 
Only your need for income does.

DM me — we build plans for work optionality, not just work elimination.

$140K Bonus Hitting Your Account Friday
You should feel excited. 
But instead you feel stressed.
Worked hard all year. Earned it. Faithful.

But now it’s real and you’re paralyzed.
Give? Invest? Kitchen? Italy trip? Mortgage?

Every option feels equally right and wrong.
The worse part is you’ve been here before.

Last bonus disappeared into “life.” 
Can’t even remember where.
You don’t want that again.

Analysis paralysis dressed as stewardship.
Accidentally burying the talents. 

Here’s what I’ve learned:

The confusion isn’t about the math. 
It’s about the mission.

Without clear family values and a financial plan, every dollar is a debate.

What works: 

Know your mission BEFORE the bonus hits.

Build a plan that assigns purpose:

1. Family mission
2. Radically intentional goals
3. Clear and known savings targets for each 
4. Predetermined order of operations
(Ie. 10% giving -> cash reserve full -> retirement in track -> kids savings goals -> fun)

When the bonus lands, you’re not deciding. You’re deploying.

This time can be different. 
But only if you build the framework first.

DM me. We help families turn windfalls into Kingdom impact, not just “life.”

God bless you, 

Jack 🙏

What if we built businesses and livelihoods with multiple generations of our families so that the older generation could contribute things like wisdom, capital, and experience 
while the younger generations drive forward with their energy, hustle, and innovation…

What if we got kids involved early on.

And part of their education was learning the different aspects of each business.

And what if retirement was just taking a more passive role and mentoring the next generation?

What if this is how we’re supposed to live?

Making $400K but haven’t updated your tithe in 5 years.

So easy for this to slip through the cracks.

You’re already giving $15- $20k a year.
Life is extremely busy with kids, ministry and work.
Your income grew fast and it was hard to keep track of it all.

Somewhere along the line…

- Spending increased in subtle ways, 
- House projects seemed to keep coming up - Taxes increased dramatically

But hey…Saving increased a bit!!!
You’re just not sure if that’s enough either.

You know you’re doing well, but also something’s off…

You know you could be more intentional and your dollars could work harder for you.

But it feels impossible to give your finances the time they deserve.

Often were able to help families: 

✅ Save taxes
✅ Multiply wealth significantly
✅ Hit their goals, faster with less risk 
✅ All while saving them time and 
✅ Increasing charitable giving

Often in 6 weeks or less…

Read that again and Imagine there was a promotion or a sale that offered you that… 

My guess? You’d take it.

So why haven’t you messaged me yet?

A married Christian couple earning $305k/yr should never lose sleep over retirement.

Why?

Because with the right plan, they don't have to.

Here's what I mean. One spouse brings in $135k from a W-2 job.

The other two businesses jointly produce $170k. 
That's a powerful income combination.

And with a Solo 401(k) on the business side, they can shelter massive amounts from taxes:

→ Tax-deferred growth that compounds year after year.
→ Full control over investment choices inside the plan.
→ Up to $50k per spouse in employer and employee contributions.

But retirement savings alone won't give you peace. 

You need a plan that covers the things most people ignore:

→ A retirement income strategy that doesn't leave you guessing at 72.
→ Long-term care costs that could drain decades of savings in months.
→ Coordination between the W-2 benefits and the business retirement accounts.

When all of this is working together, something shifts.

The anxiety fades. The daily financial stress disappears.

You stop worrying about "what if" and start living with radical generosity and intention.

That's what a real financial plan does for a Christian family.
It doesn't just protect your future.
It frees your present.

So are you going to keep piecing things together on your own?
Or are you going to build a plan that actually gives you peace?

I know which one I'd choose.
