And if you end up needing a little extra help, we’ll be there, too.

Our founder, Pastor William Lunsford, promised GuideStone would be there for retired Southern Baptist pastors, workers and their widows who faithfully served our Lord and now find themselves struggling to make ends meet. We’ve never strayed from that promise — as our Mission:Dignity^® ministry is at the heart of our organization.

Our mission is their dignity.

Do you need financial assistance in retirement or know a retired pastor or his widow who does?

But no matter what we do, our shared Christian values remain front and center.

By advocating for the faith-based values of life, family, stewardship, health and safety, GuideStone represents each of our 250,000 members in the larger conversation of faith and Christian values. We help influence companies to enact authentic, positive change as they conduct business. Additionally, we serve as your advocate in the halls of government, working with regulators and legislators on behalf of those we serve.

Because we believe in holding fast to our ideals, several decades ago GuideStone implemented an investment policy to help support our biblical values through the protection of the health, safety and emotional well-being of those we serve. GuideStone does not invest in any company that is publicly recognized (as determined by GuideStone) for oﬀering products or services that are incompatible with the Christian values of GuideStone, including but not limited to those involving abortion, sexual immorality, alcohol, tobacco, or gambling.

Advocacy

GuideStone stands actively with all believers who seek to be the light of the world (Matthew 5:14).

Life

GuideStone stands for the rights of those who cannot speak for themselves, whether it is a hurting mother or a child in the womb.

Family

GuideStone stands with the thousands of innocent women and children victimized by human trafficking and the brokenhearted men and women hurt by the pornography industry.

Stewardship

GuideStone stands with those struggling against the gambling industry and the addiction, crime and bankruptcy that accompany it.

Health

GuideStone stands with those who struggle with tobacco use, which destroys their bodies with harmful toxins and causes one in every three cancer deaths.

Safety

GuideStone stands with the 14.1 million Americans who suffer from alcohol dependence and cause one in every three motor vehicle crash deaths in the United States.
