“Wonderful night at the 40th anniversary of the Joyce Meyer conferenceā¦grateful to be a part of the celebration!” Those were Chris Tomlin’s words on an Instagram post from last night as he helped raise funds for Joyce Meyer’s TBN Love Life Women’s Conference event.
While the fundraiser, which TBN organized, thankfully raised very little in the grand scheme of things, there is something to be said for one of the most popular contemporary Christian artists participating in such an event with heretics and false teachers. As we’ve argued repeatedly at this publication, the entire industrial complex surrounding the celebrity worship scene exists for the sole purpose of making money, not glorifying God.

Joyce Meyer is well-known for her Prosperity Gospel-type preaching. The Prosperity Gospelāalso known as āHealth and Wealth Gospel,ā āName it and Claim it,ā and āWord of Faithāāis a perversion of the biblical gospel that teaches that the primary purpose of Jesusā death and resurrection is to create material gain for those who have enough āfaith.ā
But Joyce Meyer is also a proponent of the ālittle godā heresy that teaches that being indwelt by the Holy Spirit makes us both God and man at the same time, like Jesus.
Joyce Meyer is alsoĀ closely associated with Beth Moore, Christine Caine, Priscilla Shirer, and other false lady-preachers and, like the others, she preaches to men. In fact, Beth Moore referred to her as her āspiritual mamaā who she admires and looks up to for spiritual advice and counsel. Yet, Meyer is a fraud and a charlatan who serves no other purpose except to please herself with material gain.
This is not Tomlin’s first rodeo with heretics as he has previously recorded albums with a worship artist who refers to herself as a “non-binary lesbian.” John MacArthur has referred to Joyce Meyer and her ilk as “charlatans” and “pagans” who practice a spiritual “Ponzi scheme.”
