Praise for Stephen's book

"I'm grateful that Stephen De Silva has finally put prosperity in the proper light: by defining it by the condition of your soul, not your wallet."

Verne Harnish

CEO of Gazelles and author of Mastering the Rockefeller Habits

"There are two fatal and opposite errors that rob us of happiness and pull us off the path of a prosperous soul. Steve illuminates these errors and teaches how to avoid their grip."

Senior Leader of Bethel Church in Redding, CA and author of When Heaven Invades Earth
