Why Money and the Prosperous Soul Belongs on Every Entrepreneur’s Bookshelf
If you’re an entrepreneur, you already know that money problems are rarely just about numbers. They’re about fear, identity, trust, and the stories we tell ourselves about what’s possible. That’s exactly where Money and the Prosperous Soul by Stephen K. De Silva shines. Money and the Prosperous Soul offers a calm, faith-based look at money that goes beyond basic budgeting tips and quick fixes.
Stephen writes as both a seasoned CFO/CPA and a man who understands the spiritual and emotional side of money. Instead of offering another “10 steps to get rich” plan, he goes straight to the heart: the beliefs, vows, and mindsets that shape how we earn, give, invest, and take risks. He makes a compelling case that prosperity begins in the soul—long before it shows up on a balance sheet.
For entrepreneurs, this is incredibly practical. When you clear out poverty thinking, fear of lack, and unhealthy attachment to money, your decisions change. You see opportunities differently. You relate to clients, team members, and partners from a place of purpose and generosity instead of anxiety and scarcity. That’s not just good theology; it’s good business.
One of my favorite aspects of this book is the way Stephen invites you to engage, not just passively read. The reflections and exercises help you identify where you’ve been operating under invisible limits and how to step into a healthier, more spacious relationship with money. It feels less like a lecture and more like a guided conversation with a wise mentor who has been where you are.
I believe Money and the Prosperous Soul deserves a permanent place in every entrepreneurial library—right alongside your favorite marketing, leadership, and strategy books. It addresses the inner game of money that so many of us try to ignore, and it does so with grace, clarity, and a deep respect for both spiritual truth and practical wisdom.
I’m also delighted to share that Stephen K. De Silva will be joining me as a guest on Your Partner In Success Radio. We’ll be diving deeper into these concepts of inner prosperity, purpose, and how entrepreneurs can break free from limiting money stories. If this book stirs something in you, you won’t want to miss that conversation.
If you’re feeling stuck with money or want to handle it in a way that aligns with your faith and values, this is a thoughtful book to keep within reach. Money and the Prosperous Soul is available on Amazon and Audible.
