"When you've found your life's purpose, work becomes meaningful to
you. Suddenly you love what you do and your occupation doesn't feel
like work anymore. In fact, when you're living and loving your true
calling, you never have to work another day in your life! If you
want to discover and live your purpose, read Nicholas Pearce's
book. Not only will it inspire you to become who you were born to
be--it also will show you how."

calling, and activate your purpose every day, you won't want to put
this book down!"
--Bishop Lambert W. Gates, Presiding Bishop, Pentecostal Churches

boardroom and pulpit onto the written page. He writes with

process reminding us that each day's labor is indeed sacred."
