On The Prosperity Gospel with Praveen Mathews | Episode 7
"Good vibes only", "We have given to God and so we are now being blessed", "Keep repeating what you want in life and you will get it"- these phrases may sound familiar to you and are typically used in the Word of Faith movement (Prosperity Gospel). In this episode we take a deep dive into the Prosperity Gospel theology that is deeply rooted and flourishing within the Church. Praveen gives us an insight into the origins of this theology, its difference compared to the real gospel, why this gospel is so attractive and why the prosperity gospel is not good news. We hope it enriches and equips you to be better prepared when meeting these ideas in your walk with Christ. We have included timestamps below to give you more freedom in choosing what parts you want to hear again in the future if this is something you want to share. We hope it keeps you watered to water.
