"Heard about this book from Dave Ramsey.. it was one of his highly recommended books to read. It's poorly written/edited sometimes but the principles he presents are really good, and I like that it's written in narrative form. I definitely recommend it! You can read a chapter (5/6 pages) over lunch break :D"

" This was an enjoyable book with simple yet life changing principles for success. "
— Chris, 2/18/2014" There are some good aspects to this book. but when I saw principle #2, "financial prosperity is connected to soul prosperity"... I knew this is a book I could never recommend. :( "

— Alexandrea, 1/11/2014" Easy and enjoyable read! Practical life/financial advice! "
— Craig, 1/2/2014" Loved this book. If I ever have children I want them to here this story. It is a simple story, but teachers very powerful principles I wish I'd knew earlier. "
— Lex, 12/10/2013" Approaches the topic of how to be religious and rich at the same time. Has some sound principles in it. Good book for core company reading. "
— Keith, 12/4/2013" Since I am both the monk and the merchant these days...this book held my attention as it attempts to connect the symbiotic relationship between those who live in the marketplace and those who are called to professional ministry. "
— doug, 10/29/2013" Found this book from a recommendation by Dave Ramsey. It's a very quick read (2 hours on the plane) but filled with excellent life reminders. "
— Lisa, 10/5/2013" Easy read.... I'd say it was worth it.... But not a life-changer for me. (maybe because I totally agree with it!) "
— Kristiann, 10/2/2013" Finished. Not bad. Has a strong religious content. Enjoyed and learned enough to try another Felber book! "
— Ann, 9/7/2013" Not bad. Interesting quick read. "
— Gdavis, 7/8/2013" Easy read (couple of hours). Entertaining story...no surprising revelations. "
— Holly, 4/21/2013" Very fast and engaging read. Shows the interdependece of the marketplace and the church though a grandfather mentoring a grandson. "

— Teri, 3/26/2013" Great lessons for living life. "
— Todd, 3/15/2013" I really enjoyed this book about biblical principles and success. It gives some principles that are biblical in nature but practical for success in the business place. It was an easy read and I finished it in less than 2 days. I highly recommend this read for someone who believes in God. "
— Sophia, 1/12/2013" excellent meaning and valuable reminder of simple truths on God and business. the story itself felt slightly forced to be period but an enjoyable read all the same "
— Doug, 1/3/2013" A great way to look at your vocation and what really is a driving force in what you will do. "
