A lot of people believe in the ‘law of attraction.’ It’s been promoted by people like Robert Schuller and Oprah Winfrey, and it’s the foundational idea behind most Word of Faith preachers. What is it? How does it work, if it works at all? Should Christians study it?
The basic idea is related to a biblical truth: we reap what we sow. If you plant potatoes, you don’t get pineapples. This is taken beyond reason, however, when we pretend that we can sow words and reap reality.
