Who’s Teaching Happy Lies? with Melissa Dougherty

In last week’s episode, Melissa Dougherty, author of the brand-new book, ‘Happy Lies‘, joined Frank to discuss the foundational beliefs of the New Thought movement and how its theology has misled many well-meaning Christians. This week, Melissa is back to dig even deeper into the surprising and troubling connections between New Thought and the Word of Faith movement and to share names of specific teachers of this false doctrine. Tune in as they answer questions like:

How did the “seeker-friendly” church model begin and why doesn’t it work long-term?

Does Joel Osteen believe that we’re “little gods”?

Is it ok to name false teachers?

How can New Thought and Word of Faith potentially shipwreck your faith?

Would Jesus and the Apostles agree with these teachings?

You definitely don’t want to miss this eye-opening discussion about the origins of the so-called “Health, Wealth, and Prosperity Gospel”. Be sure to pre-order your copy of Melissa’s brand-new book, ‘Happy Lies: How a Movement You (Probably) Never Heard Of Shaped Our Self-Obsessed World‘ and listen to the previous podcast episode if you missed it last week!
