EP 48: Does God Want You Rich… or Just Faithful? Let’s Unpack This.


Listen Later

Are blessings only financial? Is struggle a sign of holiness?
In today’s episode, we’re diving into a conversation the church doesn’t always handle well — the Prosperity Gospel vs the Poverty Gospel and how both extremes can distort our view of God, ourselves, and the life He actually calls us to live.


As Black women trying to honor God while building families, careers, and purpose… this topic hits home. For years, many of us were taught that:

✨Wealth = faith

✨Struggle = holiness

✨Success = God’s favor

✨Lack = God’s punishment

✨Hard seasons = being “tested”

✨Overflow = being “chosen”

But is any of that actually biblical?


In this episode, we’re breaking down:
✅What the prosperity gospel really teaches
✅Why the poverty gospel is equally unbiblical
✅What Scripture actually says about blessing
✅How believers can walk in abundance without idolatry
✅How to avoid shame around money
✅How to avoid pride around success
✅The difference between stewardship, greed, and fear
✅Why God’s blessings include peace, wisdom, favor, healing, and alignment
✅How to develop a healthy, biblical mindset toward money and purpose


We’re dismantling lies, confronting church culture, and freeing women from mindsets that have kept us bound for years.


If you’ve ever felt guilty for wanting abundance…
Or ashamed for being in a season of lack…
Or confused about what God’s favor really looks like…
This episode is for you.


WATCH UNTIL THE END — you don’t want to miss the part about how God uses BOTH abundance and scarcity to grow your faith.
