"God is requiring us to begin preaching balance to the prosperity message...

You can give all the financial seeds you want, but true prosperity can only be obtained when your inner man, your soul, begins to line up with the Word."

- Foreword from Juanita Bynum Weeks

Farmington Hills, MI - Bishop Thomas Weeks, III, offers a new look into the controversial "prosperity" message often embraced by charismatic believers and dispelled by fundamental denominations.

The key difference in Weeks message from his new book, Even As Your Soul Prospers, is that prosperity is ultimately not about money.

Instead Weeks delves into scripture providing insight into God's purpose for each believer in:

* Our inheritance from the Father.
* Each individual's gifts and talents.
* Utilizing God's creativity.
* Mentorship-a vital ingredient for corporate anointing.
* Tapping into your highest potential.
* The process of overshadowing.
* Why decrease comes before increase.

The message of Even As Your Soul Prospers was birthed simultaneously yet separately in the husband/wife duo of Weeks and his wife, Juanita Bynum Weeks.

As they began to discuss what God had been speaking to them during their personal times with the Lord, they were amazed at the similar teaching of God's conditional blessing that was being revealed to them.

"You have to write this in a book," Bynum shared with her husband during those initial talks.

Although Weeks believes God's purpose is to prosper the Body of Christ financially in order to establish His Kingdom, Even As Your Soul Prospers, isn't all about obtaining wealth.

It's about reaching your potential in Christ.

"Your divine opportunity isn't determined by how many talents you have," instructs Bishop Weeks, "but rather is equated to how you utilize each (talent) to its fullest potential.

" Weeks challenges each believer to recognize God's desire to empower them to achieve their highest potential in what he refers to as "soul prosperity," the missing key to walking in God's abundance in every other area of our lives.

After realizing your purpose--now it's time to unlock your abundance.
