Larry Nault
Founder, ​President
​and Chief Strategist
Larry Nault is a Certified Kingdom Advisor, Stages of Growth Business Consultant and Financial Advisor with over thirty years working with some of America's wealthiest families. In 2004, a client situation challenged him about his faith and launched him on a journey of self - discovery.  The following year, Larry attended a workshop for Christian advisors where he was both humbled and inspired as he learned the keys to integrating his faith with work and how to build a business of significance and lasting impact. 

With the help of several Godly men, the Building A Kingdom Company Workshop was launched in 2010. Today, a Christ-centered consulting firm and community of inspired leaders, BKC exists to help Christian business owners build great companies that glorify and advance the Kingdom of God.

BKC transforms businesses and those they influence recognize the difference!​ ​Since our inception, we have connected with business leaders, owners, CEOs, and entrepreneurs who share this passion for integrating our faith and business practices into Kingdom companies. 

We are committed to walking along side of you so that you can experience the joy and excitement of seeing your life and business be a visible expression of the goodness and power of God!

Colorado businessman and entrepreneur Tim McTavish MBA is the current Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Colorado Christian University and is an adjunct professor of CCU's School of Business and Leadership. 

​Honoring Christ in the workplace was a foreign concept to Tim McTavish.  It shouldn't have been; Tim grew up in a Christian home and has always considered himself a follower of Jesus. Yet in 2003, 10 years after starting his company, InsureMe.com, his eyes were opened to just how compartmentalized his life had become, and how Christ had taken a back seat when it came to his business. 

Tim re-dedicated his life and his business to God, and began to implement basic Biblical principles in the workplace. "To say that "God blessed me" would be an understatement.  Employee turnover dropped from more than 300% to less than 10%, profits grew 10X in five years, the company was honored with being ranked in the Top 25 Great Places to Work in America, and they were awarded the Most Philanthropic Small Business in Colorado". 

In 2008, Tim sold InsureMe to Bankrate, a public company.  Since then, Tim has enjoyed a deeper connection with his family, completed his MBA at Colorado Christian University where he serves as Vice Chair of the Board of Trustees as well as teaching a course on Entrepreneurship.  Tim is also the founder of GivingZone.com - a site dedicated to personal fundraising.  ​
