Health, Wealth, and Happiness (Abridged): How the Prosperity Gospel Overshadows the Gospel of Christ by David W. Jones & Russell W. Woodbridge is a more layperson-accessible abridged condensation of their original debunking of the titular popular but erroneous belief (Wikipedia), intended for a general reading audience, whether religious or secular, this version presenting all the important points in a shorter and easier to understand manner (minus about 50 pages or so), free for a limited time courtesy of Christian publisher Kregel.
We've previously received the full version (which is listed as a bibliographical source on the Wikipedia page) as a freebie in the past. Currently free, probably just for one day @ B&N & Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK) & Google Play (available to Canadians) Description Be faithful in your giving and God will reward you financially. It's not always stated that blatantly but the promises of the Prosperity Gospel--or the name-it-and-claim-it gospel, the health-and-wealth gospel, the word of faith movement, or positive confession theology--are false. Yet its message permeates the preaching of well-known Christian leaders: Joyce Meyer, T. D. Jakes, Joel Osteen, Creflo Dollar, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, and many more. The appeal of this teaching crosses racial, gender, denominational, and international boundaries. Why are otherwise faithful Christians so easily led astray? Because the Prosperity Gospel contains a grain of biblical truth, greatly distorted. For anyone who knows that Prosperity Gospel theology is wrong but has trouble articulating and refuting the finer points, this concise edition contains all the robust arguments of the hard-hitting original edition in a shorter, more accessible form. |
