Introduction Part I — What is the Purpose of the Book?

Posted by Timothy

July 14, 2009

The book looks at the concept of "abundance" which, technically, isn’t really discussed much in the Scriptures. One of the better known references is found in John 10:10 in which Jesus says that he comes to bring life so that we may live life abundantly or richly.

But I felt that it was important to go through a set of Scripture to help people experience "Abundance" as God wants us to.

So what’s key is that unlike many other programs which just focus on getting what you want, this is about changing both who you are and what you want.

In other words, some people may start with one definition of abundance (or success or wealth or whatever) and my goal is that through a process where we direct ourselves towards God in mind, heart, strength, and soul, we begin to redefine and re-experience abundance today.

Why is this so important?

Some would say that this is *not* important because we are to focus on eternity. Eternity gives us perspective for what we are to do today.

However, I believe that when God’s people are overflowing in abundance — however it becomes defined by your based on Scripture — that it will transform others and allow others to see God’s work in our lives.

My hope is that by bringing into your life a set of steps to experience abundance in this life-time you can share God’s work with others so they may know Him in eternity.
