I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST Who's Teaching Happy Lies? with Melissa Dougherty
Melissa Dougherty, author of the brand-new book, 'Happy Lies: How a Movement You (Probably) Never Heard Of Shaped Our Self-Obsessed World', returns to dig even deeper into the surprising and troubling connections between New Thought and the Word of Faith movement and to share names of specific teachers of this false doctrine. Tune in as Frank and Melissa answer questions like:
- How did the "seeker-friendly" church model begin and why doesn't it work long-term?
- Does Joel Osteen believe that we're "little gods"?
- Is it ok to name false teachers?
- How can New Thought and Word of Faith potentially shipwreck your faith?
- Would Jesus and the Apostles agree with these teachings?
You definitely don't want to miss this eye-opening discussion about the origins of the so-called "Health, Wealth, and Prosperity Gospel". Be sure to pre-order your copy of Melissa's book and listen to the previous podcast episode if you missed it last week!
