Most investors spend serious time on financial due diligence. Almost none add the layer that can hit hardest, especially for Christian investors.

In this solo episode, Matt Johns introduces a practical framework called moral due diligence: a repeatable three-step process for evaluating whether an investment aligns with your values before your capital is already committed.

Matt walks through a real scenario, a retail strip center investment that passed every financial check, only to reveal a morally compromising anchor tenant months later — and breaks down exactly how a structured screening process could have caught it in advance.

What you'll hear in this episode:

— Why a deal can be financially clean and still be morally compromised
 — The difference between financial due diligence and moral due diligence
 — The three-step framework: Discover, Discern, Decide
 — How negative screens work and why the largest Christian investment firms already use them
 — A traffic light system for assessing moral risk in any deal (green, yellow, red)
 — Four ways to respond once a moral concern is identified: walk away, mitigate, redirect, or engage
 — Where AI tools fit into the screening process and where they don't
