Charmaine DeShields thought she had it all. A promising career. Good health. A beautiful house. A promising relationship. Most importantly, she was a proud member of the largest and most popular megachurch in all of Seattle--the Blessed and Highly Favored Full Gospel Church. Everything started changing in her seemingly perfect life after a pastor visiting from China created such an uproar at her church, with messages most members found both mean spirited and judgmentally offensive, that Mark Lau was asked to leave and told never to comeback. It took traveling all the way to Shanghai, China, with her best friend, Meredith Geiger, for Charmaine to discover the many differences between her church, which was opulent in every sense of the word, and Pastor Lau's church, which was located beneath a dry cleaners, of all places. Even more telling were the messages both pastors preached. Despite that they taught from the very same Book, their messages couldn't have been anymore polarizing. While Charmaine was instantly intrigued by the whole "underground" experience, Meredith was so traumatized that she cut short what had been the best vacation of her life, to go back to the States. But not before alarming Charmaine's boyfriend of the grave danger they faced. Rodney Williams then told lead pastors, Julian and Imogen Martín, who flew 5,700 miles from Seattle to China, to rescue her from the so-called pastor who'd already caused some to leave their megachurch. Upon arriving, they learned their suspicions were quickly confirmed. Mark Lau had used his subterranean gathering place to radically change Charmaine's way of thinking. Despite her strongest protests, they flat-out refused to believe that God had used him to transform her life and deepen her faith, to the extent that she finally had eternal assurance. Tragically for the Martíns, by the time they discovered the prosperity Gospel they'd been preaching was a false one, it would be too late...
