#UnBlessed: The Prosperity Gospel and Poverty Faith Healing

Are wealth and health proof of God’s blessings? Pastor and Author Emmy Kegler examines the appeal and pitfalls of prosperity gospel. Later, we find out which former member of dc Talk is a socialist and wonder why 2000s evangelicals loved The Matrix so much! 

Note: I know the difference between analogy and allegory, and I meant that The Matrix is an allegory for the trans experience. Chalk it up to nerves!
