The book has been very interesting so far.
For example: The writer spoke about how today's church focus so much about teaching how to discover our Destiny, which primarily has to do with our career calling, with a caveat on Fortune. Our true destiny, he argues, is actually to become conformed to the image of Jesus.
And here's another interesting point:
Most pulpit ministries are unable to meet the real needs of Christian businessmen because most of them do not understand the difference between priestly income and business income. the pastor's income is priestly in that God commands His people to provide a reasonable living for those in fulltime pulpit ministry whereas the business/working man's income, is earned by the sweat of his brow.
The businessman is battling it out for market share in the midst of a cursed financial system that he is trying desperately to understand. He does not need to hear about how to give more offerings to the church programs, but how to implement God's ways in his business affairs so he can earn enough money to give offerings from.
