God Wants You to Be Rich: How and Why Everyone Can Enjoy Material and Spiritual Wealth in Our Abundant World

Pilzer explains that the foundation of our economic system is based on our Judeo-Christian heritage and includes chapters on a variety of financial issues from outsourcing and unemployment to the rise of technology and real estate. Pilzer puts an interesting spin on the debate in the Christian community about the relationship between God and wealth. “Prosperity” preachers encourage the idea that God wishes his followers to have wealth, but other ministers don't want to confuse finance with faith.
