The Bankrupt Spirit, an inspirational debut work by Christian author Vivi Monroe Congress, confronts a far too common inner state of being known as Spiritual Bankruptcy. This book goes the distance, fueled by the wisdom of Jeremiah 1:10, on a journey to disclose, disable and destroy the catastrophic effects of spiritual bankruptcy which denies us our divine inheritance of spiritual, physical and financial well-being. Financial terms are cleverly integrated to parallel the bondage (debt) that occurs when there’s a state of brokenness in our ability to draw upon our faith account in the Word (or bank) of God and how one can overcome by employing the life skills proposed through the wisdom of God.

Ms. Congress is keenly adept at motivating her readers to explore the deep-seated issues at the very core of their spiritual versus human existence.

Excellent Tool for your Sister Circle Book Club,
This review is from: The Bankrupt Spirit: Principles for Turning Setbacks into Comebacks (Paperback)
How often do you let disappointments get you down? Do you allow the problems of the world take your joy away? The Bankrupt Spirit encourages readers to seek God to understand their purpose, reclaim joy in their hearts, and calmness in their soul. Congress uses the metaphor of the banking industry to illustrate how to take control of your life and live for God. The steps are: Confirmation, Confession, Commitment, Control, Composition and Cultivation. Exercises, tools and references to scripture round out the information presented making the knowledge applicable and practical for everyone.
Congress uses plain language grounded in the Word to assist readers in recapturing their love of God. The reader is responsible for connecting with God at all times in order to increase their spiritual bank account. Our investments will control the interest of our accounts while our attention to detail aids in diversifying our portfolios minimizing the risk of bankruptcy.

This review is from: The Bankrupt Spirit: Principles for Turning Setbacks into Comebacks (Paperback)
We all have had our "bankrupt" moment. Especially if you have been walking with God for any length of time. However, this book helps us to identify when and where our spirits became bankrupt and more importantly what to do about it! Dr. Congress writes with the words of a seasoned spirit and there is gentle healing in this tool. It is written in a non-condemming way and is full of truthful encouragement. This book was a blessing to me. Norma L. Jarrett, Author of Sweet Magnolia -Essence National Book Club Selection

Is my spirit bankrupt, is yours?,
This review is from: The Bankrupt Spirit: Principles for Turning Setbacks into Comebacks (Paperback)
"The Bankrupt Spirit" the name alone gets you thinking. Is my spirit bankrupt, is yours?
According to this author yes, we all have, have had or will have a bankrupt spirit. However unlike most religious books I didn't feel inadequate, I felt human. Like a work in progress seeking the peace of the kingdom if God. Also I wasn't left wondering, wait until the end of the book to began remedying my bankrupt spirit. Go get this book read it began removing the emotional baggage that you put on yourself. That emotion baggage keeps your spiritual account overdrawn. D. Blackwell A SistaGirl Book Club Reviewer
