"He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he made five talents more." (Matthew 25:16) Inspired by the Parable of the Talents, John Manning's work (stock day-trading) has evolved into the Ergon Foundation, a creative solution that stewards resources towards radical generosity and Kingdom-building work. John loves helping others ... whether his Praxis friends as part of the Redemptive Labs team in Austin, TX, his church community as an elder at the Austin Stone, or his family as husband, dad, and little league coach.
