The KICC preach the prosperity gospel. One of the corner stones of this theology is basically the more money you have the closer to God you are. Followers of prosperity gospel religions tend to opt for outward shows of wealth, such as expensive clothes, cars, jewellery to convey the message to across others that God loves them more. The flip side of this is belief is that God does not love the sick and the poor as much as the wealthy and healthy.

Please check out the following link for a greater understanding of the prosperity gospel. It was made by the BBC's religion and ethics programme Heart & Soul and provides an interesting insight into this world. The clip from the radio show is about 15 mins long but makes fascinating listening. The speakers are a number of pastors and congregants and the programme makers do not spin it they simply record the enthusiasm and comments of participants. Anyone who would like an greater understanding of this concept should pop kettle on, make a nice cuppa tea, then sit back relax and think about life, the universe et al:
