Tom,

I had a quick look at one of Joyce Meyer's books yesterday and realized that, in order to convince my student, I have to read it myself and present concrete evidence from the book she is reading. In this case the title is something like "Battlefield of the mind".

I found three websites that either give a good summary of the Word-of-faith movement and/or discuss individual Word-Faith teacher's theology. You can look here or here or here.

I now have better idea of what the Word-Faith movement is and that indeed there are serious errors in the teachings of Word-Faith preachers. A purely subjective observation I made after watching a few videos of some of the Word-Faith preachers is that instead of REALLY focusing on Christ in their preaching, they actually turn the attention of the audience on themselves.
