Read an Excerpt

The work ethic used to work. It served past generations well. They made the ends meet. "Work hard and you'll get ahead." Effort alone prospered many families, but not anymore. People who once prospered are now homeless. More and more children are living below the poverty level. Industries that once supported successive generations are shutting down. Throughout most of the twentieth century, one person in the household worked and provided for the needs of the family. Now both husband and wife often work to insure a basic standard of living. In election years, the incumbent politicians used to be able to prop up the economy, so it looked good by the autumn of election year, but they don't seem to be able to perform the magic anymore.

This is not the time to double our efforts and do what we have always done a little better. The old methods will not work. We are being called to a new way of life. Humanity has only scratched the surface of prosperous living. Now is the time to dig deeper, not for precious metals, but for the treasure that is within us. The issue is not a continuous supply of bread, but whether we will discover "Man shall not live by bread alone" (Mt. 4:4).

There is another way of life-one filled with security and well-being. Needs are provided for without making them the reason for our existence. Even in the winter, this new vision reveals "the fields are already white for harvest" (Jn. 4:35).
