I, Radical: God's Radical Business Through an Ordinary Man - Softcover

“I knew it had to be God, because there was no way I could have done it myself!” Buck Jacobs is a pioneer and visionary who often expressed these words in the course of his life. And he is certain he’ll say it again, and again. I, Radical is the account of how God changed a headstrong, self-willed man into a servant dedicated to helping business leaders grow in the wisdom and stature of the Lord. It is the story of a man who chose to listen and obey God through the many trials of life, and who went on to develop today’s influential C12 Group, LLC, America’s leader since 1992 in equipping Christian business owners and Chief Executives to “Build Great Business for a Greater Purpose.” Rich with examples of power and miracles, you will journey with Buck through his colorful career, starting as a successful entrepreneur living among Italy’s wealthiest, down to the brink of bankruptcy, and on to a miraculous salvation that changed the course of his life. But his new beginning was only the start. God led Buck through a series of faith-building circumstances that became the foundation of one of the most effective tools in developing businessmen and women of integrity. Whether you are a Christian owner, CEO, or President, this book will challenge and bless you. It is written with honesty, humor, and brims with practical wisdom for the business world.
