About the Author:

Larry Burkett was born in Winter Park, Florida on March 3rd, 1939, the fifth of eight children. After completing high school in Winter Garden, Florida, he entered the U.S. Air Force where he served in the Strategic Air Command. Upon completion of his military duties, he and his wife Judy returned to central Florida, where he worked in the space program at Cape Canaveral, Florida. He spent the next several years at the space center in charge of an experiments test facility that served the Mercury-, Gemini-, and Apollo-manned space programs. While working at the space center, Larry earned degrees in marketing and finance at Rollins College, Winter Park, Florida. Larry left the space center in 1970 to become vice president of an electronics manufacturing firm. In 1972 Larry put his trust and faith in Jesus Christ to guide his life an event that had a profound effect. In 1973 he left the electronics company to join the staff of a nonprofit ministry, Campus Crusade for Christ, as a financial counselor. It was during this time that he began an intense study of what the Bible says about handling money, and he started teaching small groups around the country. In 1976 Larry Burkett left the campus ministry to form Christian Financial Concepts, a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching the biblical principles of handling money. In September 2000, CFC merged with Crown Ministries, creating a new organization, Crown Financial Ministries. Larry is serving as co-CEO with Howard Dayton (founder of Crown Ministries) until May of 2001, when Larry will become the chairman of the board of directors and Howard will serve as CEO of Crown Financial Ministries. Larry has published more than 50 books, sales of which now exceed six million copies and include several national best-sellers. The four radio programs, Money Matters, How to Manage Your Money, MoneyWatch, and A Money Minute, are carried on more than 2,000 radio outlets worldwide. In May of 1996, Southwest Baptist University conferred on Larry an Honorary Doctorate in Economics. Larry and Judy Burkett have four grown children and nine grandchildren to date. They live in Gainesville, Georgia, where the headquarters of Crown Financial Ministries is located.
