The JOY of Giving: Prosperity Politics in America and Why Evangelicals Have Not a Clue
Have you tried purpose driven life-styles after Y2K, prayed the prayer of Jabez, and still find yourself empty and dissatisfied come credit crisis in 9/’08 or oil spilling off the Casino Coast? We have.Our journey takes us back to Christ—from Protestant “workaholic righteousness†—even from Mother Teresa’s revelations: how she lost the presence of Jesus in her life over sixty-six years of serving the poor in Calcutta, India. Could we find ourselves alienated from Christ too? Oh yes.Where’s the JOY and satisfaction we once knew? Is tithing by Law what God wants?Join us in finding out what Jesus Christ really has to say about trusting in ourselves, America, and easy step "What works for me" theology.

We believe in ourselves, innovation, markets, technology... and end up with government growing, because our lawlessness increases. Have we a backup plan, if the "Rapture" turns out to be as Y2K?

And then the lawless one will be revealed." (2 Thess 2:7-8) Will we continue to love, as Christ loved us?

However, before investigating this hypothesis from an internationally and historically comparative perspective, the terms and "tools" for this undertaking have to be rendered more precisely. Since both "control" and "violence" are all but clear-cut terms but rather highly debatable and contested con...
