Doesn't God Want Me To Be Happy?

We're blessed to hear from our Lead Pastor, Jeff Ellis, this morning as he brings us a new message in our series of Hot Topics. In this eye-opening message from our Hot Topics series, we take an honest, Scripture-based look at the Prosperity Gospel—a belief system that promises health, wealth, and happiness in exchange for faith and giving. With clarity and compassion, we unpack why this teaching is so attractive, how it subtly distorts the true Gospel, and what God actually promises his people. Rooted in God’s Word, this message offers hope that isn’t found in material success but in the unshakable truth of Jesus Christ—who saves us, sustains us, and walks with us through both joy and suffering.
