There is an idea that some people call the Prosperity Gospel. It says that God wants us to be happy and prosperous. If we follow him the right way  have enough faith, good things will come to us. Because God wants only good things for us, we will have wealth, health, and all the comfort life has to offer us. But Jesus said some things that challenge the Prosperity Gospel. And in doing so, he raises this question for us today: Does following Jesus make our lives materially better?
