Publisher's Synopsis
Acquiring material possessions has become the driving passion.This trend is underpinned by a twenty-first century churchthat preaches a prosperity gospel.God is calling His people to experience His fullness and riches while they yet live. But, all too often, His call becomes lost in the noise of a compulsive drive for personal gain. Dr. Michael Blackwell issues a quiet yet shrill clarion, penetrating the business of life, and producing a renewed focus on the truth of God's desire for us. A dynamic reminder of the definition of the riches God designed for our lives, Riches Beyond Measure helps the reader to refocus on the true meaning of life, thus providing a refreshing antidote to a popular but misplaced theology.In Riches Beyond Measure, author Dr. Michael Blackwell leads us gently but firmly on a journey of discovery.Starting with the admonition to accept themselves, readers are drawn through twelve successive steps, culminating in a challenge to embrace the future.
