‘Banking on Purpose’: Nick Vujicic’s Vision for a Proactive Christian Movement
In 2019, Nick Vujicic received a text message from his team that stopped him in his tracks: his bank accounts had been frozen. There was no warning—just a sudden, unexplained lockout. When he pressed for answers, the bank offered none. Days later, a formal letter arrived stating that, after reviewing him as a customer, they no longer wished to do business with him. He was given 30 days to move his funds or risk losing access entirely.
Vujicic—a world-renowned evangelist and entrepreneur with over 16 million followers, originally from Australia and now a longtime U.S. resident—believes the abrupt termination was triggered by a magazine article critical of his Christian beliefs. For him, the incident was a wake-up call.
