Does God want you to be rich?
This is a really good article on the "prosperity Gospel" that a friend of mine found in Time Magazine. I was raised in a prosperity Gospel church and this all rings pretty true. It is also interesting to see folks like Rick Warren giving a counterpoint to this theology.
Nice read. Good find. I think it's interesting that they focus the prosperity message only in terms money. I didn't see that as a distinction. I have always seen the prosperity message to mean "If you work hard enough with the help of God you can achieve it."
