Health, Wealth, and Happiness


Book 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.




Health and Prosperity


Book Description

Murtin examines the long-term causes of health improvements over the last two centuries. Focusing on the relative importance of income and education, Murtin finds that education alone accounts for the bulk of health improvements since 1870, and explains the strong correlation between longevity and income, which is highly correlated with education. Conversely, the book shows that progress in longevity has had dramatic consequences on societies, as it reduced fertility, triggered the spread of education, spurred economic growth, and improved 'prosperity' in a way that is comparable to the long-term rise in income. Health and Prosperity sheds light on the real cost of health systems in the 21st century.

Faith, Health and Prosperity


Book Description

The church has always been of two minds about the spiritual value of material wealth. In its public statement, if not always in practice, it has usually taken a position on the moral high ground, renouncing excessive wealth in favor of a modest and sacrificial lifestyle. But the gospel has also been a force for self-betterment and a catalyst for social progress and the creation of wealth. Offering a detailed history of this movement, the contributors examine the relationship between faith and wealth in the Old and New Testaments and New Testament church, searching for an evangelical viewpoint on faith, health and prosperity.
