Kenneth Copeland, Prosperity gospel works

Kenneth Copeland has built a religious empire teaching that God wants his followers to prosper. Circle of Copeland's relatives and friends have done just that, They include the brother-in-law with a lucrative deal to broker Copeland's television time, the son who acquired church-owned land for his ranching business and saw it more than quadruple in value, and board members who together have been paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for speaking at church events.
