## Resource

Bertie Lourens did something most entrepreneurs only talk about—he actually made God the legal majority shareholder of his waste management company. Not symbolically. Not philosophically. Legally. Through a non-profit structure, 51% of his shares now belong to an entity representing God's ownership, complete with accountability structures that could remove Bertie if he walks away from his commitment.
