African Christianity has been greatly influenced by the Word-Faith movement—a teaching that overemphasizes health and wealth—or what is commonly known as the prosperity gospel. People are taught that, as believers, they are entitled to wealth and health. But what happens when believers don’t become healthy and wealthy as has been promised? A false excuse comes into play—something we call “generational curses.” Rodgers Atwebembeire gives the scriptural solution to these errors.
