"God wants you to prosper." Most of you have probably heard a preacher say that over the years, but recently the “prosperity gospel” has become a favorite punching bag for critics of pentecostal and charismatic ministers.

In this special Valentine's Day episode, Ian takes a deep into a passage from 1 Thessalonians in which the Apostle Paul instructs men to "control their vessel."
