5 GIFTS for an Abundant Life! is a handbook to a consciousness of wealth.  The book is designed to guide readers into the experience and subsequent embodiment of five spiritual principles and practices that will assist them in revealing the Abundance Consciousness that is already within them. From the Introduction through the Conclusion, the GIFTS which is an acronym for Gratitude, Intentions, Forgiveness, Tithing and Surrender are identified and presented in a variety of practical ways so that the reader feels inspired, safe and nurtured to welcome them into their own daily spiritual lives, and thus change their experiences of lack and limitation. The entire book is woven together with a metaphoric scenario featuring a Mysterious Stranger's arrival at the reader's birthday celebration to bring 5 GIFTS to them. As the book progresses, the reader is invited to unwrap each package.  Contained within each of the 5 presents are symbols of that particular spiritual principle, instructions for its use, followed by the author's narrative about the power and impact of each GIFT. To further inform and involve the reader on this journey of discovering and living a life of abundance and prosperity in every area of their lives, a Personal Success Story from a student of the 5 GIFTS for an Abundant Life! class or one of the author's counseling clients is included in each GIFT chapter. So that the reader can truly experience the power of Gratitude, Intentions, Forgiveness, Tithing and Surrender, one or two exercises are included in each GIFT chapter, to be done alone or with the support of a Prosperity Prayer Partner with whom the reader has been invited to share this journey. And finally, each GIFT chapter contains an invitation to the reader to give an immediate gift to themselves, in honor of having begun to master the principle and practice just completed.
