Is expecting a “heavenly reward” the same thing as the prosperity gospel?

In this episode of the podcast, we explore what the Bible says about heavenly rewards and why living with an eternal perspective changes everything.

When life is hard, obedience feels costly, and your faith goes unnoticed—God sees it all. The pain you endure and the faithfulness you choose are not wasted. There is a purpose beyond the temporary, and Scripture promises that eternal rewards in heaven are waiting for those who don’t give up.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Is it worth following Jesus?” or “Does God reward us for staying faithful?”—this episode will encourage you to live for what matters most.
