A Ministry First. A Firm Second.

Since 1993, we've helped Christian families steward their finances with wisdom, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to biblical principles. We don't just manage money — we walk alongside you through every season of life.

Our Story

Built on Biblical Principles for Over Three Decades

Christian Financial Advisors® was founded in 1993 by Bob Barber with a simple conviction: Christians deserve a financial advisor who shares their values — not just one who tolerates them. What started as a one-person practice in New Braunfels, Texas has grown into a team of experienced professionals serving over 350 client households nationwide.

For more than 30 years, we've stayed true to that founding conviction. Every investment we recommend goes through our biblically responsible screening process. Every plan we build is grounded in stewardship, not speculation. And every client relationship is built on the kind of trust that only comes from shared faith and a fiduciary commitment to your best interest.

Today, with over 133 years of combined experience across our team, we serve families from our headquarters in New Braunfels, Texas, along with offices in Land O' Lakes, Florida and Rockport, Texas.
