“This is a courageous book. Steve blends the best of a theology of suffering with the best of a theology of prosperity to produce a powerful cocktail of faith not fatalism, and realism without triumphalism. Drawing on the life of Job, his own journey, and years of pastoral experience, Steve skillfully calls for both power and perseverance in the face of suffering.”

No, not just another book attempting to take the suffering out of suffering. ‘How to Live in Prosperity in a Suffering World’ is very possibly the read from which you will grasp not only why, but what to do with agonizing troubles, lingering disappointments, and failures. Though the quest for answers goes on, Steve doesn’t leave us in perplexity, but thankfully shows us that our heavenly Father has not failed us after all. It is a gratifying understanding of what true prosperity is all about God’s secret of lasting gladness. Soak in it, reflect, and prosper!

This book is a remarkable journey. It is an eye-opener that could help align an increasingly polarized American church. The misunderstanding of prosperity and suffering has left the Western church often excited and flaky or disciplined and powerless. Steve is uniquely positioned and called by God to write this book. As a pastor in Aspen, he lives in the epicenter of affluence, but he has also served in India, Haiti, and Africa, and is well acquainted with suffering throughout the globe. Steve has pastored evangelicals and charismatics, billionaires and beggars, faithfilled and faith-less. Steve demonstrates God’s heart toward us and how we deal with blessing, suffering, and what we are really meant to be pursuing. Its message has the potential to bring clarity to Christians and unity to the Church. I have been blessed to visit 50 countries and meet Christians in most of them. I have observed that how we view prosperity and suffering will greatly impact what we believe, how we live, and the impact we will have. This book is a timely and needed resource for anyone wanting to walk in biblical prosperity through a world of suffering.”
