Messages preached to churches all over the world, stadiums packed full of people and millions more watching on TV, all mean that there is a very real need for us to understand and answer the false teaching of the ‘Prosperity Gospel.’
The aim of this book is not to focus on whether that teaching is biblical, but primarily to investigate its roots and what influence it has had on some charismatic leaders here in the UK.
