Doug Tjaden

Doug has written a good primer to learn more about a biblical worldview of economy and the history of money: I Came to Give (with this link you can sign up and get access to the eBook and Audiobook). Doug has also made available a PDF version of Part 2 of his book. It is called “The Traditions of Men” and is a dive into monetary history from 600 B.C. to present.

In addition to Doug’s founding role in Regeneco, he is head of Marketing and Business Development for OWNx. Doug has a deep background in the Sound Money movement, including the Ron Paul days of reforming our money supply and the Fed.

Doug is also part of the Storehouse leadership team.

OWNX is based in Lawrence, KS and is a fractional metals platform. This means you can buy and sell precious metals electronically, but you physically own the inventory in a remote depository. You also have the flexibility of taking delivery of your metal to your own physical location, either in the form of bars or coins.

OWNX partners with a leading metals refiner, Dillon Gage and their storage facility International Depository Services (IDS) and is not a fiduciary, rather a holder of people’s assets.

The company was founded in 2008 as Silver Saver, with the recognition that the precious metals market, specifically the silver market lacked transparency, cost efficiency and ease of use, especially for smaller investors/savers. Read more about the history here.

This is a tool you can utilize to build your own regional Storehouse (see Storehouse vision for more on that), either through a non-profit entity, a church or a business entity. You can also use it personally and soon, they are launching a precious metals IRA that is fully integrated into their online platform.

To give you an idea of their value alignment with the Kingdom, when the Dobbs decision was handed down by the SCOTUS last year, they immediately instituted a Child Adoption Policy to show their support for life.

Genesis 13:2

And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’ “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”’ “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’ “This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.”
