Cephas (“see-fuss”) was originally formed in 2012 to manage complex investments on three different continents. The current Cephas team joined together in 2018, united by a common vision to unlock value for stakeholders, steward relationships and capital, and explore investment opportunities in alternative investments.

Philosophy
Our core competencies drive our investment and business philosophy, and our core values drive our worldview. We seek to engage in meaningful transactions while pursuing the following core values:
Generosity: We seek to invest a majority of the firm’s distributable profits into organizations that align with Christian principles and worldview, out of a spirit of generosity. We seek to spur other like-minded businesses further along the journey of generosity and be highly engaged with partner organizations.
Stewardship: We strive to maximize our highest and best uses so we can be the best stewards possible of our time, talent and treasure.
Authenticity: We strive to lead lives, professionally and personally, that are authentic.
Prayer: We believe that God knows the future, and loves us more than we can imagine. We look to Him for guidance.
Excellence: We strive to be excellent at all that we do – work, service, and family.
Joy and Fun: We value laughter, having fun, and finding joy in our work and life.
Legacy: We work to build on the rock, with a firm foundation that stands the test of time – but we work to be remembered for far more than business long after we’re gone.
