False apostle Frederick K.C. Price, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Augustus Dollar Junior, Eddie Long, TD Jakes, Joel Osteen, Benny Hinn, Jamal-Harrison Bryant and even the old teachings of Kennth Hagin. Avoid them all and avoid all like them.

Google has some great videos if you look, especially since they can be longer than the usual 10 minute restriction of YouTube. These two brothers handled the subject well.

Yea, I hope people are making copies, because you never know when something like this might cease to be available.
Obviously some saints have made a great effort to make this material freely available and more saints should make copies in case something happens to what is currently available.

Speaking of YouTube, Not Your Typical Negro recently hooked me to a video series featuring the late Dr. Walter Martin regarding New Age activities (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaugTVphEto) that essentially mirrored what these two gentlemen were focusing on concerning the modern “church”. In addition to pointing out all of the flaws rooted in this false gospel, I truly appreciated the distinction the speakers made regarding “experience-based” teaching and having scripture “conform” to them, versus Christ-centered teaching and exhorting the audiences to fall in line with scripture mandates. The crux in this is the pimps’ use of having a particular kind of “faith” to obtain riches in this life.
Messages, as given by pimps, are done as stories and narratives, and are often done using their twisted interpretation of the Word and their “faith” as a means of worldy gain (selfish desires disgused as “blessings”). They often use hard-luck (often embellished)stories of their upbringing and hard-economic times in their younger years as a base to gain empathy from their followers. Then, they tell everyone how they “reminded” God of His “promises” to “do” a laundry list of things and how God supposedly “orchestrated” their life circumstances to get what they have and where they are today. Thus, in order to have this kind of “faith,” one’s “faith” must be “demonstrated” by “trusting God” with our finances. Accordingly, the more “faith” you have, the more you give, based upon what God supposedly did for the pimp to enrich him. Basically, no goods, no “faith.”
It is this type of self-perpetuating cycle is what has given rise to what we are seeing today. While our economy is going down the tubes, the pimps are still spinning their garbage and traveling the country with it, extracting what they can from the masses that are getting poorer by the day. Again, I thank God for you and other to have the fortitude to speak and carry forward these most critical messages.
