The "prosperity gospel" has spread across the globe and infiltrates homes daily, even through primetime television. Among the core claims of these teachers is that God wants his people to be healthy and wealthy, and if a person is not rich and well, it is because that person lacks faith. This distortion of the Bible's teaching needs to be answered faithfully and winsomely, and the chapters of this volume work toward that end. Writing from perspectives such as missiology, biblical studies, economics, and pastoral theology, the contributors tackle crucial issues from Scripture and ministry to lay out a realistic and theologically sound view of health, wealth, and spiritual vitality.
