is bringing financial health to the world.
Prosperous Soul is a transformative program bringing financial healing and education to individuals, families, and organizations worldwide. Grounded in biblical principles, Prosperous Soul utilizes spiritual tools like Financial Sozo® and Purpose Train© to shift from financial disease to health.
In July 1995, Stephen followed his heart’s call to transition from traditional CPA services to become the Chief Financial Officer at Bethel Church in Redding. His arrival coincided with a pivotal moment for Bethel, as the board sought new senior leadership. Ultimately, Bill and Beni Johnson were chosen to lead, ushering in a period of growth and transformation.
During his time at Bethel, Stephen navigated the challenges of adapting to the evolving vision of the organization. He found himself at the intersection of faith and financial stewardship, overseeing the church’s financial affairs as it expanded its influence when Bethel’s revenues grew exponentially, from $1 million in 1995 to over $40 million by 2016.
Since 2016, Stephen leverages his extensive experience and divine inspiration to bring financial healing to homes and businesses with a fresh biblical perspective on money. Join us, and rewrite the story of biblical stewardship for generations to come.

Bonita Shelby
US
I served in the Sozo® ministry at my church for over two and a half years when I felt a push to pursue the Financial Sozo® program for myself personally and our church. This occurred after a study of the book, Prosperous Soul, which confirmed that I could personally benefit from having a Financial Sozo and would like to share this empowering tool with others. It all fell into place since my first career was as a CPA and one of the services I provided was a debt consolidation and budgeting program for US Air Force service members and their families. I enjoy all kinds of music, reading non-fiction/informational material, creative cooking, new but safe adventures and as an eternal student, I’m always learning something and sharing it with others.
