    Great Stuff! But, I hear that guy’s a hedonist. :)

    doesn’t somewhere in the Bible, God tell the Israelites that if they come back to him and humble themselves, that their women will stop having miscarriages? I couldn’t find the verse, but i vaguely remember reading it.

    Powerful. He couldn’t be more right on about the way that prosperity is being sold to the third world. It literally makes me sick.

    Thanks for the post, Aaron. I glad that someone has said that loud and clear. My wife was recently in Mexico City on a business trip and saw people living in abject poverty… and a church with gold-plated doors (literally.) What do lavish structures or expecting God to bless you financially or physically have to do with the life that Jesus has called us to live?

    Exodus 23 on the miscarriages. It worked for a little while…
