Podcasts about prosperity gospel

“Does John 14:13-14 support prosperity gospel claims?” This question leads to a critical examination of how this scripture is interpreted by prosperity gospel preachers. Additionally, the discussion touches on how to read “Behold Your Mother” for deeper understanding, the intensity of Maximilian Kolbe’s prayer to Mary, and the nature of work in heaven according to Genesis 2:15.

Donate to help Chris make Truce Christians were involved with many forms of media from their inception. They were there at the dawn of radio, with the first commercial broadcast of music being played around Christmas in 1906, and the gospel of Luke was read. A similar story is true for television. Evangelists loved the new medium, with preachers like Oral Roberts using it to spread their brand of Pentecostalism. Pentecostalism was made for television. Where many denominations featured calm worship services, it seemed like anything could happen with Oral Roberts' brand of Pentecostalism. He healed, he made big claims, and he made a lot of money. Roberts' format was followed by people like Jim Bakker and Pat Robertson. Pat Robertson created the Christian Broadcasting Network, which later functioned as his platform for launching the political careers of politicians and, eventually, himself. Robertson's influence is all over evangelicalism, from the ubiquity of consumerism and prosperity ideology to our involvement in political movements. He formed the Christian Coalition and was a leader in the Council for National Policy. Robertson attended many of the seminal meetings of the Religious Right. And his message was amplified by his powerful television platform.

“It is a teaching that is especially attractive to people in areas that are very poor, in places that are hopeless.” Dr. Kenneth Eagleton discusses common tenants of Prosperity Gospel teaching, which has spread like wildfire to many places around the world. Kenneth refutes the philosophies of those that adhere to it. Kenneth is director of global partnerships for IM, Inc. #NAFWB #BetterTogether #ProsperityGospel

Turns out you don't need a seminary degree, holy water, or even basic mental health literacy to perform an exorcism — you just need confidence, cash flow, and a total disregard for the DSM-5. While Catholic exorcisms lean theatrical and ritualistic, the Protestant version goes full freelancer energy: zero oversight, no training, and absolutely no refunds. This is the Etsy marketplace of demon removal, and the vibes are… exactly what you think.In the finale of our Exorcist trilogy, we unpack the evangelical evolution of “demon hunting,” where faith healing crosses into LARPing, trauma gets rebranded as spiritual warfare, and grifters discover the extreme profitability of exploiting untreated mental illness. From 18th-century Anglican barkers and Victorian nail-vomiters to modern prosperity pastors, online exorcism courses, and “pray the gay away” violence, we follow the money, the mythology, and the body count.TL;DR: When religion meets capitalism, demons become a business model.New to Satan Is My Superhero?  This show is 60% comedic deep-dives, 40% rage-fueled blasphemous sketch comedy, and 100% fact-checked mockery of superstition, conspiracy theories, and religious con-artists.

 Jim Osman exposes the greed and exploitation of false teachers who use plastic words to merchandise believers. These deceivers appeal to covetousness while masking sensual desires and avarice behind fabricated doctrines. The greed and exploitation of false teachers manifest through fraudulent ministries that prey on vulnerable souls, promising prosperity while extracting wealth. Peter warns that certain judgment awaits these false teachers who exploit others through greed, making contentment the essential defense against their deceptive schemes and plastic words.  ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode of Burn Notice, Vince and OG Napalm revisit the question that had the comments buzzing: “Where are the Christians?” As the Epstein files move closer to release — and the redactions and political games intensify — we break down why white evangelical leaders stay silent while victims stay forgotten. From prosperity preachers to corporate Christianity, we unpack why morality never seems to apply when power and money are on the line. We dig into America's historic hypocrisy, the roots of Christian nationalism, ICE overreach, racial targeting, and the real dangers everyday people are facing. The system wasn't built to protect the vulnerable — so who will? Burn Notice brings the smoke.

"Don't ever use the sovereignty of God as an excuse for inaction as a parent. And at the same time, don't assume that this is some kind of formula or Prosperity Gospel parenting that says, 'if you plant your seed of good parenting, it's going to yield a believing crop.'" Pastor Adriel Sanchez shares from Proverbs 22:6, Deuteronomy 6, and 2 Timothy 1 what fathers and parents can do to disciple their children.

Join us in the second episode of Africa Statement on Prosperity Gospel and Word of Faith Theology as we unpack Articles from this historic declaration. We examine the dangerous teachings that twist faith into a force to manipulate God, turn giving into a transaction for blessings, and elevate pastors into untouchable figures of spiritual authority. The African church provides a powerful, biblical correction, affirming that faith is a gift, not a force; that giving is an act of worship, not a payment for miracles; and that a pastor is a shepherd, not a master.Read the Statement from the African church: https://africastatement.org/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kuzaappInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kuzaappTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kuzaappBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/kuza--3674993/support.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “abundance out of scarcity” with a discussion about the beauty behind conviction of scripture. When reading the Bible, we often encounter verses that prompt us to reassess our heart posture. You may ask yourself, “Am I being intentional about my walk with Christ?” Asking yourself questions like this can be a sign of the Holy Spirit's conviction, and the Lord corrects those He loves because He wants us to grow. We turned to the phone lines to ask callers the question, “What scripture, when first reading it, caused you to feel conviction?” We then had Rob West join us to discuss financial abundance in the context of God. Rob West is the host of the nationally syndicated radio program Faith and Finance LIVE, which airs weekdays at 3 pm on 90.1 FM. He is also the host of the Faith and Finance podcast and has a FaithFi App. He is also the CEO of Kingdom Advisors, a community of financial professionals specializing in delivering biblically wise financial advice. We then talked about the upcoming event, Experience Moody. This event invites prospective students to the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago to learn about its biblical foundation, hands-on ministry training, and robust student life activities. The following are upcoming Experience Moody days: September 26, 2025 October 17, 2025 November 21, 2025 February 20, 2026 March 27, 2026 April 17, 2026 If you're looking to hear a particular segment from the show, look at the following time stamps: Rob West Interview (Debunking Prosperity Gospel) [04:29] Caller Segment (The Verse that Convicted Me) [29:34 ] Karl and Crew airs live weekday mornings from 5-9 a.m. Central Time.

How do you understand God's sovereignty when your dad is murdered, your family is in poverty, you are living in the most awful slum and your extended family won't help. Richmond Wandera's father murdered when he was just eight years old, leaving his family destitute in Uganda's Naguru slum. Initially he wanted revenge. But then he came to know Jesus Christ. We talk theological reflections on suffering, as well as a challenge for Western comfort-seeking Christianity, and a clear critique of the Prosperity Gospel.Richmond Wandera leads the Pastors Discipleship Network across East Africa, as well as pastoring at the church where he came to Christ and partnering with Compassion in Uganda.ChurchSuite Taster Days in AustraliaChurchsuite is a Church Management Platform.

"Prosperity Preachers" target people who belong to a culture that encourages "blind faith" and a lack of questioning. They target those are harmed most by the system and demonize all services that could help them within that system. And then, they convince these "targets" that they can buy their salvation, health, wealth, material gains - through giving to "the church". Meanwhile, these pastors are running frauds so lucrative, they make Walter White's scheme seem like child's play.

If you thought the church was safe from the cult of capitalism + culture of consumerism?Well, I hate to inform you, they're both victims + perpetrators of it.For example: Blessings in the form of financial gains/cars/houses/jobs.

PLEASE ENJOY THIS RE-BROADCAST OF AN EARLIER NCR PODCAST: In this episode of the National Crawford Roundtable podcast the guys talk about the decline in Biblical Worldview, even among professing Christians. Are evangelical Christians doing a good job of representing Jesus? What is the Church doing right? What is the Church doing wrong? How have sex and money scandals hurt the Church? Has the Church done a good job of being the salt and light of the Earth? Is winning the "culture war" the same as making disciples?

We react to Patrick Bet-David's viral Jubilee episode (capitalism vs. communism), unpack why hustle culture/MLM shortcuts fail, and lay out practical steps—skills, blue-collar resilience, living below your means, generosity, and Sabbath rhythms to avoid burnout. If you've wondered, “Can ambition be godly?” this will recalibrate your vision. Subscribe & leave a review.

In this episode of Truth Talk, we break down the lies of the prosperity gospel and uncover what the Bible really says about faith, blessing, and following Jesus. It's not about chasing wealth—it's about pursuing truth.To Watch This Episode Go To Our YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@truthtalkpod

Jesus' parable of Lazarus and the rich man challenges us to examine the gates that separate people from justice and inclusion in our society. While Jesus never condemned wealth itself, he consistently emphasized caring for the poor and marginalized as central to his message. Today's churches often drift from this mission, focusing on beautiful buildings rather than dismantling systems of inequality. Modern gates include gentrification, healthcare deserts, and unequal education funding. The Bible calls us to break down these barriers by welcoming everyone equally and directing our resources toward those in need. By partnering with justice organizations, advocating for change, and creating truly inclusive spaces, we can live out the gospel's call to tear down the gates that divide us.

Not every gospel being preached today is the true Gospel. In this video, we expose 4 dangerous false gospels—the Prosperity Gospel, the Legalistic Gospel, the Therapeutic Gospel, and the Universalist Gospel—and show how they distort the message of Jesus Christ. With Scripture as our guide, we contrast these lies with the true Gospel that offers real grace, truth, and eternal life. Whether you're confused about what's being taught or just want to stand firm in your faith, this video will equip you with clarity and conviction.

Dawn and bestie, Ryan Ripple, take on the easy, non-controversial subject of Protestant Christianity in America.  As your history books have told you, the earliest colonial settlers came seeking religious freedom, what few discuss is why these denominations were considered 'fringe' back in Europe.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” — Matthew 5:3In the final episode of our Financial Ethics series, we're tackling a message that promises health and wealth—but often leads to heartache: the prosperity gospel. Dr. David W. Jones joins us to unpack its dangers and point us back to a truly biblical view of blessing and provision.Dr. David W. Jones is Senior Professor of Christian Ethics at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He holds a Ph.D. in Christian Financial Ethics and is the co-author of Health, Wealth, and Happiness: How the Prosperity Gospel Overshadows the Gospel of Christ by Dr. W. Jones and Russell S. Woodbridge.Faith Is Not a TransactionOne of the most dangerous ideas in the prosperity gospel is that faith guarantees financial prosperity. It treats faith like a force—a tool believers can wield to compel God's blessings.But biblical faith isn't self-generated or transactional. It is a gift from God, a response to His revealed grace, and a means by which we trust Him, not a lever to gain wealth. Faith is “the eyesight of the soul”—deeply rational and rooted in the truth of who God is, not in wishful thinking or material expectations.Prosperity theology often preaches a “faith formula”: believe hard enough, and you'll be rewarded. But this distorts faith into a mechanism for personal gain. Hebrews 11:1 tells us that faith is “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” It's not irrational optimism—it's a reasoned trust in the unseen promises of God.We should view faith not as a way to escape hardship or secure abundance but as a path of trusting God in all things, including suffering.The Problem with Escaping SufferingOne hallmark of the prosperity gospel is its aversion to suffering. But as Jones points out, suffering is part of living in a fallen world—and it's not something Scripture tells us to avoid at all costs. In fact, passages like 1 Peter 4:12 and 2 Timothy 3:12 remind us that suffering is to be expected for faithful followers of Christ.Rather than hinder our faith, suffering refines it. Suffering is the crucible of character. It's often through trials that we grow closest to Christ and are shaped into His likeness.God's Provision Comes Through WorkAnother distortion in prosperity teaching is the expectation of windfalls—blessings that come without effort. But God's design for provision is through work. From the beginning, humans were created to labor and create, reflecting the image of God.Working, creating, and flourishing through effort honors our design and brings fulfillment. Attempts to bypass God's design through get-rich-quick schemes ultimately violate our dignity and God's intended path for flourishing.Prosperity preachers often misuse Scripture to back their claims. One example is 2 Corinthians 8:9: “That though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.”Taken out of context, it may sound like a promise of material wealth. But in its context, Paul is referring to our spiritual poverty and Christ's sacrifice to make us spiritually rich—context matters. Misreading Scripture to fit a materialistic theology distorts the gospel's central message.Giving as Grace, Not GreedProsperity theology often frames giving as a transaction: sow a seed to receive a harvest. But biblical generosity isn't about personal return—it's about grace.True giving flows from love for God and neighbor. We give not to get, but because we've already received so much. Our stewardship reflects our gratitude, not our greed. The heart of biblical giving is a response to God's grace, not a strategy for personal gain.Make your life about Christ, not your increase, not your own prosperity, but about flourishing in the image of His Son.That's the true antidote to the prosperity gospel. We aren't promised wealth, ease, or success. But we are promised Christ—and in Him, we find every blessing that matters.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 64 and planning to retire within the next year. I have approximately $10,000 that I won't need for income, and I'm seeking guidance on how to invest it wisely. I'm especially interested in options that align with biblical values and reflect my faith in the companies I support.My wife and I are approaching retirement. We're financially secure, and our home is fully paid off. One concern I have is not having long-term care insurance. I'm considering either a reverse mortgage or a home equity loan to cover potential long-term care expenses, but I'd like to understand the pros and cons of each option before moving forward.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Health, Wealth, and Happiness: How the Prosperity Gospel Overshadows the Gospel of Christ by Dr. David W.

In this final episode of our “Prosperity Gospel, Poverty Gospel, and The Gospel” series, we're diving into the forgotten commands of scripture that every Christian should know when it comes to money. We're not just talking about how to make more or give more — we're talking about how to think biblically about money, handle it with eternity in mind, and why most believers are stuck in financial cycles that don't reflect the heart of God. We break down 1 Timothy 6:17–19 and show how Paul gives us a framework for wealth that isn't about prosperity or poverty — it's about purpose. In this episode, we cover: Why God wants you to enjoy what He's given — but not worship it The #1 thing Paul told the rich (and it's not what you think) How to track your “Net Given” (instead of your net worth) The difference between seed and bread in 2 Corinthians 9 Why your money is meant to flow through you, not just to you How to write a personal “Wealth Purpose Statement” with your family Why generosity now is connected to eternal treasures later

Sheila Booth-Alberstadt ignored God for the first 40 years of her life. But after being confronted by His very real existence, she proceeded to treat Him like a genie in a bottle. Yet she was constantly plagued by doubts like: Why couldn't she heal her own children when they were sick? Why couldn't she heal her own body? Why didn't financial prosperity come to her even when she had the “faith” that it should? It eventually all came to a head after she left for the woods to spend time with God seeking answers… when He delivered her from the Prosperity Gospel.

What if I told you that nothing you own is actually yours—and that this truth could radically change how you think about money, stress less, and give more? In this episode, we dig into one of the most transformational shifts in our Christian financial journey: moving from ownership to stewardship. This isn't just a spiritual concept—it's the antidote to both the prosperity gospel and the poverty gospel. We break down: Why guilt fades when you realize you're a steward The 3 principles Jesus taught that flip your finances upside-down How estate sales (yes, really) shook us into reevaluating our relationship with stuff Why multiplication is God's agenda, not just accumulation What “assets under management” means—and why it beats calculating net worth The parable of the talents, fast fashion, and what bike shorts taught us about ethics and obedience This one gets real. Real personal, real biblical, and real practical.

In this episode, we're going deep on a topic the Church either glamorizes or demonizes—but rarely handles biblically: money. We're unpacking Exodus, Jesus, and even Tesla stock (yep)—to wrestle through a question that's been tripping up believers for decades: “Is wealth inherently evil… or is it just a tool?”  Here's what we found: Why the Israelites' gold became both a golden calf and a golden lampstand What Jesus really meant when He said, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” The shocking contrast between how the Old and New Testament describe wealthy people The heart posture that turns a blessing into an idol And why generosity, not guilt, is the actual fruit of spiritual maturity This isn't financial advice—it's soul-searching. If you've ever felt tension about having too much… or too little… this episode will give you clarity. 

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (06/27/25), Hank addresses the perverted understanding of money espoused by the prosperity gospel.Hank also answers the following questions:Does the armor of God in Ephesians 6 have a connection to Isaiah 59:17? Does Ephesians touch back to the Old Testament? Orville - Tulsa, OK (15:12)Regarding the assertion that Jesus never talked about homosexuality, Jesus' reference to Genesis 2 regarding divorce and remarriage shows that husband and wife relationships are male and female, correct? Orville - Tulsa, OK (16:55)I noticed that in Genesis 7:11, the first instance of the word month is mentioned in the Bible. Why is month never mentioned in creation? Is the lesser light in Genesis 1:16 speaking of the moon? Ron - Springfield, MO (20:56)I'm a part-time youth pastor considering full-time ministry. What is the biblical role of a pastor? Should it be a paid position? Craig - Macon, MO (24:04)

In today's episode, we're discussing a little controversy we sparked recently over the prosperity gospel being prevalent in many majority-black churches across the country. We correct the record on what was said and bring the statistics to back us up. Lucky for us, there are plenty of black speakers and authors who are saying the same thing, despite what the race-baiters want you to believe.
