Publisher's Summary

A captivating first-person look at one of the world's most powerful prosperity dynasties that offers a unique perspective on greed, the Church, and the journey toward Truth.

Millions desperate for hope and solutions are enticed by the promise of the prosperity gospel - that God will do whatever they need with just a little faith and a financial gift. All the while, prosperity preachers exploit the poor and the needy to stockpile their riches. What can followers of the true gospel do to combat the deception?

Through a remarkable and fascinating journey, Costi Hinn went from a next-generation prosperity preacher to the first to abandon the family faith and share the true gospel. Nephew of the world-famous televangelist Benny Hinn, Costi had a front-row seat to the inner workings and theology of the prosperity gospel. But as Costi's faith deepened, so did his questions about prosperity teaching. As the deceptions in his past were exposed, Costi came face-to-face with the hypocrisy and devastation caused by his belief system and the overwhelming truth about the real Jesus Christ.

This captivating look into the daily lives of one of the world's leading prosperity dynasties offers a thoughtful perspective on the perils of greed, the power of the true gospel, and hope for the future of the global church. Through real-life stories, Costi challenges and equips listeners to be living lights pointing the way to the true gospel and the saving grace of Christ. God, Greed, and the (Prosperity) Gospel will bolster your faith and encourage your own journey toward the truth.

Spanish edition also available.

Excellent.

I highly recommend this book. Costi Hinn presents the fallacies of the prosperity gospel well and the reading performance by the author is full of emotion and he reads very clearly.

A Much Needed Book For The Modern Church

Costi Hinn,
Speaks honestly, openly and frankly about his family healing dynasty and all its short comings and scriptural abuses.

This is a must read book for any Christian in the modern chruch.

If you wish to hear about the inner workings and life style of Benny Hinn’s ministry this book is for you.

Written not to be polemical, but with a pastors heart for the global chruch and the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Costi Hinn has done a great service for all Christians by exposing the short comings of the prosperity gospel and exulting the true life giving gospel of Jesus Christ’s one to serve others not to become rich of others.

Finally, someone had to speak up

Great book, interesting read and real page turner.
Costi could’ve exposed his uncle years ago when he broke away from the Hinn church but he chose to start life again, relearn theology and become a real pastor before writing about the prosperity gospel, and that’s what makes this book different.
