Does God want you to be rich?

 

The prosperity Gospel is partly right: God does want to give you your best life now. But the abundant life Jesus invites us into is far better than getting rich. Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove explores Jesus’ tactics for slipping God’s economy into the broken systems of this world.

Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove is a leader of the new monastic movement, co-founder of the Rutba House community, and an associate minister at St John’s Baptist Church in Durham, North Carolina. He is the author of several books, including Becoming the Answer to Our Prayers, written with Shane Claiborne.
