The Journey – Rodney Olsen’s blog about life, faith and family
Rodney Olsen writes:
Does God want you to be rich? Is the kind of prosperity that Jesus promises in the Bible all about financial wealth?
Prosperity gospel is sweeping the world with many people claiming that financial wealth is an important indicator of God’s blessing.
Where does this gospel come from? Were Jesus and his disciples rich as many prosperity gospel followers claim? Are we being unfaithful to God’s call on our lives if we don’t have everything we desire in this world?…….
…….Today we talked about prosperity gospel and the way that it is not only sweeping through prosperous western countries but poor nations throughout Africa. Did you know that some prosperity gospel televangelists are taking more money out of poor regions in Africa than they are putting back in to care for the starving?
I have found a wonderful blog from down-under. Rodney Olsen is a great radio personality and knows how to put together a great blog. His Christian views and comments are worth the visit.

thankyou for popping by … and thank you for PRAYER … that is so appreciated …
blessings on your blog (i see you have already checked on some blogs that i read too) … once my life gets back to “normal”, which translates to my husbands health getting back to regular yucky – rather than “extremely uncomfortable yucky” … i hope to be back here more often!
