Product Description An empowering message about the true meaning of prosperity—to help anyone achieve a life of spiritual and material abundance. Imagine if you could achieve a life of true prosperity, enjoying: - A vitally alive, healthy body through which you experience relationships that are always satisfying and intimate, honest, and nurturing - Work you love so much that it's not work, it's play - All the money you can spend Living at this exceptional level is not only possible—it's right there for you, Edwene Gaines explains, if only you abide by the four spiritual laws of prosperity. Gaines, an ordained Unity minister, has been delivering her inspirational, life-changing message to audiences of all faiths at workshops across the country. Explaining the four spiritual laws, she shows why it is essential to: - Tithe to the person or place where you have received your spiritual nourishment - Set clear-cut, tangible goals - Forgive everyone all the time, especially yourself - Seek, discover, and follow your divine purpose, which will help you to assign significance to your life and bring a passion to all that you do The solution to financial problems lies within, Gaines insists, and here she shows you how to raise your abundance consciousness and free yourself from a life of deprivation and want. From Publishers Weekly Prosperity, says Gaines, is our birthright, a divine inheritance that incorporates not just material abundance but also a comprehensive knowledge of the consciousness of God. Gaines, a Unity minister, was once down-at-heel and wondering where the next meal was coming from, but now lives a life of luxury. She claims that to follow her example, readers need only put into practice four simple spiritual laws: tithe ten percent of all they earn or receive; set specific financial and spiritual goals; forgive others and themselves daily; and find and commit to a divine purpose. Gaines is well-schooled in Unity principles and the basic New Thought understanding of the power of positive thinking. Thus, for example, she includes an exercise for readers to utter no negative words for 21 days and watch, amazed, as their lives are transformed. Some of the book's stories of divine assistance with finances will spark skepticism in even the most credulous of readers, like Gaines's anecdote about winning a $100 grocery spree immediately after praying for food for her refrigerator, or a story about dreaming that she was supposed to go to Knoxville, Tenn., the night before a study group in that town sent word that they were looking for a Unity minister. Gaines's program is clear and her tone endlessly enthusiastic, but many readers will undoubtedly question her claims of limitless abundance.
