Some business owners who embrace a profound faith claim that “God owns my business.” In this session, host Jeff Thomas interviews business executives who have taken the steps to make that belief a reality: they have donated the ownership of all or most of their companies to faith-based organizations. This case study examines the practices of the former owner and current operator of a large crane company, the founder of a micro-finance company, and the founder of a wealth management company who aspires to this position.
