For more than twenty years, I believed and taught Word of Faith doctrine, first in England as associate minister to Harry Greenwood and then as a pastor and live TV host here in Arizona. In this new interview with Doreen Virtue, I share how God graciously delivered me from that deception through the doctrine of His sovereignty and the simple discipline of reading Bible verses in their context. We talk through the difference between biblical prayer and “decreeing and declaring,” why Hebrews 11 dismantles the prosperity gospel, what the effective prayer of the righteous actually means, and how a sovereign God rules over even our suffering. I pray this conversation strengthens your confidence in Scripture and helps someone you love find the way out of these teachings.
