Who says you can't serve both God and Money? Certainly not the 17%
of American Christians who believe in the Prosperity Gospel. They
think God will reward their faithfulness with great material wealth
and a clean bill of health. Millionaire evangelists like Joyce Myer
and Joel Osteen offer tips to help you "manifest" Gods blessings in
your life by cultivating a positive attitude, banishing
self-defeating thoughts and meditating daily on God's desire for
you to live an abundant life. But according to Barbara Ehrenreich,
it's no coincidence that the prosperity gospel resembles "the power
of positive thinking" more than it does the bible. In Blindsided:
How Positive Thinking Is Undermining America Ehrenreich highlights
the striking similarities between prosperity preachers and secular
self-help gurus while tracing both back to a common ancestor.
