Isn't the message of the prosperity gospel that prosperity is directly proportional to faith? More faith = more prosperity; lack of faith = lack of prosperity?

Yup, them Schullers were telling the truth after all... that's pretty thick with irony all right. Oops, gee...

Taking a contrary stance -- is there anything good about the prosperity gospel preachers or methods (of course, not the dogma!? To gc and Lee -- I think both the Presbyterians and Catholics should bring in the enthusiasm of the pentecostals and we can learn a lot from the Presbyterians deeper reading of scripture.

But, do you think there is anything worthwhile in the prosperity gospel preachers leaving aside dogma) or would we think its all bad?
