Did you ever wonder if money is evil or God is against material riches? This is far from the truth. This book will clear every doubt you may have about wealth and reassure you that God wants you to make wealth for several reasons-to take care of yourself and dependants, help the needy, support Gxod's work, promote noble causes, and leave a good legacy. As such, wealth itself is not evil-how we seek and use it are what matter the most. After all, money serves many useful purposes worldwide and has been with us through the ages.
The book stresses that it's God who gives us the ability to make wealth, as we trust Him and walk in integrity, prudence, diligence, and generosity, among other things. However, it draws attention to the limitations of material riches and invites us to seek mostly true and enduring riches that are found in God alone-riches that are free of sorrow and bring satisfaction, peace, and security, now and forever. Whether you are rich or poor, a believer or an unbeliever, this book is a must-read, as it:
¿ Outlines God's plan and purpose for financial well-being
¿ Encourages pursuing wealth in godly ways and for godly purposes
¿ Warns against illicit and impure gain that corrupts and destroys lives
¿ Offers guidance for financial responsibility, discipline, and prudence
¿ Gives hope and encouragement to the poor and needy
¿ Inspires faith in a gracious God who provides and enriches
You will never remain the same after reading this book, as it will usher you into divine power to prosper, prudent and blameless financial living, and eternal riches through faith in Jesus. Just read it!

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Lawrence Manu was born in Ghana, the fifth of ten siblings. He grew up and had his elementary education in a rural community. The demands and deprivations of village life instilled the values of hard work, endurance, self-restraint, and contentment in him at an early age.
Lawrence trained as elementary school teacher and taught in public schools for years before going to the University of Ghana, Legon, where he graduated with an Honors B.A. in political science and sociology in 1985 and served as a teaching assistant. He then moved to Canada in 1987 for graduate studies at the University of Toronto, where he obtained an M.A. in political science and M.Ed, and also served as a teaching assistant.
It was after this, when life's troubles arose, that Lawrence began to have a personal relationship with God. He sought and served the Lord diligently and was called to full-time ministry with the Church of Pentecost Canada in 2004, where he pastored until his retirement in 2019.
Lawrence now lives in Georgetown, Ontario, with his wife, Lydia Mensah, married for over forty years. They have three grown children-Vera, Lawrence Jr., and Cecilia-and three grandchildren-Avah, Ariel, and Amaya. Lawrence enjoys spending time with his family, studying, teaching, praying, charity, and soccer.
