Pastor Leland Rubin delivered an extraordinary presentation at 2:TEN Church, where my wife Amanda and I have the privilege of serving as Lead Pastors. His message was both powerful and practical, sharing principles that have profoundly blessed not only our family but also our church family.

The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive—our members haven’t stopped talking about the transformative insights he shared. The principles he outlined opened our eyes to financial strategies that align with biblical stewardship, offering a clear path to build legacy and create financial freedom.

It was a no-brainer for me to join this movement and be trained and equipped to share these life-changing principles. I’m now passionate about helping other churches and families discover the same blessings we’ve experienced. This is truly a message every believer needs to hear!

The GFI Church Stewardship Program has been a transformative blessing in my life. As someone committed to serving my church and community, I’ve always sought ways to empower others, but this program has taken my efforts to the next level.
Through the program’s guidance, I’ve been able to reach and educate leaders in my church and community, leveraging financial strategies rooted in biblical principles. GFI’s approach has shown us how to align our financial decisions with God’s word, teaching us that stewardship goes beyond tithing—it’s about managing all of God’s resources wisely.


By implementing these strategies, we’ve helped our members move toward financial freedom. They’ve gained clarity on how to save, invest, and protect their wealth while creating a legacy for their families. The program’s emphasis on stewardship has inspired a cultural shift, and we now see our congregation walking confidently on the path to financial well-being.
I’m deeply grateful for the GFI Church Stewardship Program. It has truly empowered us to live out Proverbs 13:22: “A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children.”

He equipped me with powerful financial strategies that I had never considered before, and his ability to break down complex concepts into clear, actionable steps has been a game changer. Because of his mentorship, I now have a stronger foundation, clearer direction, and the tools to build lasting wealth.

Pastor Leland doesn’t just teach finance he empowers you to think differently, move wisely, and build confidently. I’m grateful for the impact he’s made in my financial journey and my mindset.
