Word of FaithSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the controversial teachings of Kenneth Hagen and the Word Faith movement in this lecture. He explores how Hagen's ideas were influenced by E.W. Kenyon, and how he presents a different concept of faith. Gregg highlights the importance of positive confessions and the belief that one's words have the power to shape reality. He also argues against the idea that sickness is always the result of lack of faith and discusses the teachings on healing within the movement.
