Financial Hero – Larry Burkett
Why is Larry Burkett a www.JosephSangl.com Financial Hero?
Larry Burkett is a www.JosephSangl.com Financial Hero because he LIVED what he taught. Larry taught the principle of "God is the owner. We are the managers."
Think about that principle for a minute. It changes the entire way you manage your money. It forces you to look at it from the position of a manager, NOT the owner. Let's break this down. If you are a store manager for my favorite fast-food restaurant, Chick-Fil-A, what is your job? Ultimately, it is to help the owner make more money! Yes, you are responsible for ensuring the customers are delighted with the food and service and ensuring that the drive-through moves swiftly, but ultimately you are responsible for boosting sales and increasing profits.
If you were the owner of U, Inc., would your fire yourself? How are you doing?
Larry consistently challenged everyone to look at their finances from a biblical perspective. The Bible is very clear that when you approach your finances from a manager's perspective, you will obtain better results.
Larry wrote over 70 books! Let's put this into perspective. I am still working to have my first book published!
He passed away in 2003, but he has left a legacy in print and spoken word that continue to impact tens of thousands every year. What a legacy!
