paula white giving speech
White is a prominent televangelist and advises President Trump on faith issues.

In a video that's going viral, White House Faith Advisor Paula White promises “seven supernatural blessings” from God Himself if you send her $1,000 or more this Passover season. But act quickly, these blessings are only on sale until Easter! 

Meanwhile, critics are asking pointed questions. Are the blessings of God for sale? And does Paula White have the authority to dole them out?

Who is Paula White?

Paula White (who also goes by Paula White-Cain) is a popular televangelist and the head of the recently-formed White House Faith Office. White also served as a faith advisor during President Trump's first term, a decision that attracted attention at the time due to her unique brand of Christianity.

White delivered a prayer at Trump's first inauguration on January 20, 2017, becoming the first female clergy member to perform that duty. 

Faith for Sale?

White's recent ad is grabbing attention for its bold claims about receiving blessings in exchange for large monetary donations.

“I believe that when you honor God on Passover, starting on April 12th at sundown through Good Friday on the 18th and concluding on Easter Sunday, you can receive these seven supernatural blessings for you and your house,” begins the video of White, backed by gentle piano music.

White House faith advisor Paula White promises her followers that God will grant them seven blessings if they tithe...

Posted by Universal Life Church Ministries on Thursday, March 27, 2025

Citing Exodus 23, White says God will bless her followers with seven blessings – including health, prosperity, and even your own personal angel – but only if they send her a gift of at least $1,000.

White frequently teaches that financial blessings are tied to sowing "seed money" into ministries – primarily her own. 

Prosperity Gospel In Action

White is one of the most prominent preachers of the prosperity gospel, a controversial Christian theological belief that asserts faith, positive speech, and most importantly, donations to a particular evangelist or church will increase one's material wealth and physical well-being.

Rooted in the idea that God's will is for believers to thrive financially and live in health, the movement has grown worldwide in recent decades. Supporters believe that financial donations to the church bring glory to God, which is then shared with them through earthly benefits and blessings. 

However, this philosophy has been widely criticized for promoting a transactional view of faith and exploiting vulnerable followers.

False Teacher?

Asking followers for money in exchange for holy blessings is not exactly an uncommon practice, and White is hardly the only prosperity preacher out there.

And yet something about this particular proposition has prompted outrage on social media, where it was received by many commenters about as well as a stale post-Easter Peep.

Some fellow Christians have even called for a "false teacher" and demanded her removal from the White House: 

Others have turned their spotlight on controversial practices White is involved with, like speaking in tongues: 

Oval Office Support

As the backlash continues to spread, White can count on at least one of her flock to stand with her: President Trump, who appeared in that very same video to call her a “very special woman” who has “helped us so much in so many different ways.”

What do you make of White’s promise of health and wealth for her followers in exchange for large sums of money? And more generally: is there merit in prosperity gospel claims?

First they get power by "demonizing" vulnerable minorities; they undermine colleges/universities, culling out so called "elitists who oppose, critique or speak out against them (there's that first Amendment thing again). Public Education: There will be an official curriculum handed down, to include why the Gulf should be the "Gulf of America" and why "Greenland." Eventually they will get to religious freedom: these are christian nationalists after all. And then they will get to someone you know, then someone you love, and then you.

    She, like many so-called Christians, embodies the traits of the Pharisees criticized by Jesus for their hypocrisy and self-righteousness. Those who follow teachings that deviate from Jesus' message are not true Christians. Christ urged us to be love, emphasizing that we should step beyond the confines of religious buildings and be the temple of love by following His example. Instead of judgment, we should go where people are suffering and offer them compassion and assistance. The Pharisees used God's name to enrich themselves through legalism, exploitation of the vulnerable, and public displays of piety, prioritizing personal gain over genuine worship and community well-being.

    While I would never participate in such, I am firmly in favor of both the freedom of and from religion and balancing personal choice with the right to opt out. Paula White’s $1,000 "Special Blessings" pitch definitely walks a line that tests those freedoms. On one hand, she’s free to preach and fundraise as she sees fit under religious liberty; her ministry’s been doing this kind of thing for years, and people willingly buy in. On the other, the optics of a White House-connected figure tying supernatural promises to big donations can feel coercive to skeptics, especially when it’s draped in spiritual authority. Freedom from religion kicks in when folks start questioning if her influence blurs lines between faith and exploitation—or even state and church, given her advisory gig. It’s a messy overlap, but legally, she’s in her lane.

      1. Pastor Jim's Avatar Pastor Jim

        Paula White does not explicitly promise "seven supernatural blessings" from God Himself in direct connection with her position at the White House. Rather, this promise is tied to her activities through Paula White Ministries, her personal ministry and website, and not officially linked to her role as a White House faith adviser. In a video titled "Passover Season: God’s Divine Appointment With You!" posted on March 23, 2025, on her ministry's YouTube channel, White claims that honoring God during Passover (starting April 12, 2025) can lead to receiving seven supernatural blessings, which she lists as divine favors such as prosperity, health, and an assigned angel, citing Exodus 23. The video includes a solicitation for a "special Passover offering of $1,000 or more," with a narrator suggesting this donation could "release seven supernatural blessings and provision into your life," accompanied by material incentives like a Waterford crystal cross. While White mentions that the act is about honoring God and not solely to "get something," the framing heavily implies a transactional exchange, consistent with her prosperity theology teachings. Her position as head of the White House Faith Office, announced by President Donald Trump in February 2025, is a separate role where she advises on faith-related matters. There is no evidence in the available information that she ties these specific donation requests or blessing promises directly to her White House duties. Historically, White has made similar appeals through her ministry, such as in 2020 when she solicited donations for "supernatural protection" during the COVID-19 pandemic, later withdrawing from a related event after backlash. The current Passover appeal aligns with this pattern of linking financial contributions to spiritual rewards, a hallmark of her prosperity gospel approach, rather than a new action explicitly tied to her White House position.

                Having been a scientific nutritional health writer for 20+ years my primary sources are like raw data, official documents, scientific studies, court records, and firsthand accounts like speeches and interviews because they’re unfiltered by someone else’s spin. Scientific journals with peer-reviewed studies are great for empirical claims but you’ve gotta watch for biases in funding or sample size.

                Statistics from government databases like the Census Bureau, BLS, or international bodies are usually reliable for numbers, though agendas can creep in, so the date needs to be verified. X posts can be useful for real-time takes or unfiltered opinions, but you’d need to sift through noise and check linked sources yourself—I can help with that if you point me to specifics.

                No source is infallible, so the best strategy is triangulation: compare primary data, expert analysis, and diverse perspectives, then reason it out.

                I also find it hilarious that you are accusing liberals of having a massive propaganda arm when we just had all of the emails and correspondence between people at Fox News confirming that they knowingly lied about the 2020 election being stolen because it increased their viewer ratings and therefore their profits.

    Before Rome (through Paul), Jesus taught that divinity was within, as indicated by His claim to be “the Son of Man.” Untampered apocryphal or non-canonical gospels contradicted the Church’s efforts to consolidate power and control. Jesus was, in fact, anti-religion in the sense that He taught freedom from institutional control—specifically opposing ritualistic external cleansing, such as prayer baths, in favor of spiritual cleansing through forgiveness, repentance, and love. This posed a threat to Jewish tradition and the REVENUE of the rabbis. Paula White appears to be to adopting a similar REVENUE generation technique.

    If you’re dumb enough to believe in ANY religion or that ANY invisible deity exists then you get what you deserve! Which is generally - controlled, abused, duped, and robbed! To blame someone else for another’s actions ie: blaming Trump for this charlatan is just what religion does and why they created a “devil” so none of you ever have to take personal responsibility for your disgusting actions - “the devil influenced me and made me do it” which is total BS! Anyone dumb enough to believe this con artist or that any deity that doesn’t exist is gonna do anything for anyone needs psychiatric treatment!

      That was my initial reaction, but sadly we can't always blame the fool here. Old folks with dementia living alone are the primary victims of this stuff, and they literally can't help themselves.

    Curious...if I send her the $1000 for these seven blessings and personal angel, and the angel, let's say, doesn't show up for work...can I request a refund? What about suing for the loss of monetary gains advertised? If i don't see any improvements in, say, 90 days, am I entitled to compensation?

    Seriously, it's not Cristian to sell God's favor for profit. Isn't that the lesson of Judas? The whole "Mega/MAGA church" idealization if pure fraud.

      I'll agree Jerry, what you've said is biblical, that is, God holds no allegiance to any nation, man or movement other than his own.

    This just makes me wonder about something else. She is supposedly part of the white house faith council. Isn't that violation of the Establishment clause of the constitution. Maybe that can be grounds to get this fraud away.

        Let’s just say that the country has been founded upon Separation of Church and State, and her using appointment to financially bilk the believers is an atrocity!

    She, like many so-called Christians, embodies the traits of the Pharisees criticized by Jesus for their hypocrisy and self-righteousness. Those who follow teachings that deviate from Jesus' message are not true Christians. Christ urged us to be love, emphasizing that we should step beyond the confines of religious buildings and be the temple of love by following His example. Instead of judgment, we should go where people are suffering and offer them compassion and assistance. The Pharisees used God's name to enrich themselves through legalism, exploitation of the vulnerable, and public displays of piety, prioritizing personal gain over genuine worship and community well-being.

    We know the White House is for sale. She paid Trump with a contribution to Trump of the position. Just as Trevor Milton gave $1.7 Million to Trump to get out of his prision sentence with a pardon last month. And don't forget the Tate brothers contribution to get out of chargers of rape and raping kids in Romania and the UK.

  1. Jessica Forbes's Avatar Jessica Forbes

    Setting a certain amount and what it cost to have blessing is exclusion. What about the low income? God want to give you blessings all the time. And the religious tradition is giving back 10% of what he allows blessed you with to make. God giveth. God taketh away. It's a way to make a routine of not just thinking of yourself. God is more worried about what you give to the world not what you receive. And he will give to you.

    She is definitely NOT preaching the word of God. Maybe of Mamon, but not of YHVH. As a reminder to all, part of the reason for Martin Luther's 95 Theses was due to Simony, or the selling of indulgences. That's exactly what this "creature" is doing.

  1. Farajallah Michael Yazbek's Avatar Farajallah Michael Yazbek

    Why should I limit myself to only 7 blessings by sending HER $1000 before Easter? I'm blessed because I believe in the blessings given to us by God. I receive blessings every day, whether they be the love of a child, a wild animal coming up and greeting me every day, or just by the rainbow of colors in the world surrounding us. I think she needs to go back and read where Jesus told a young man that blessings are not to be bought or sold, but are given in grace. This is a very serious issue with her that borders on heresy.

  1. Pastor Wm. Dawson's Avatar Pastor Wm. Dawson

    What a piece of Satanic P O S. I am a Trump supporter, but this woman has to go. Not only does she not know the KJV scriptures, she has the satanic vulgarity to presume to think GOD would even give a so-called blessing to any human of this day and age. This is not how GOD works during the age of Grace. It is appalling to think that such an intelligent man as President Trump is, that he would allow this person to take advantage of people that has no idea what they are throwing money away at. This Country and world are nearing the end when the Rapture comes.

  1. Farajallah Michael Yazbek's Avatar Farajallah Michael Yazbek

    I absolutely love how everyone in here is taking the opportunity to show their Trump Derangement Syndrome off. As a member of the clergy we are required to know our business, which is helping others to the gift of salvation, not going through the back door to spout politics within the Church. You need to understand that all leaders are ANOINTED BY GOD. Period. So there is that. Now if you want to disparage God, disparage the one he anointed to be President for now. Just saying. Leave the political views out and discuss the actual issues at hand. Let's simplify this problem.

  1. Rev. Kameelah Stewart's Avatar Rev. Kameelah Stewart

    These people are absolutely ridiculous! How are they convinced that they are the only direct way to contact God? What makes them think that YOUR prayer is greater then MY prayer that God would choose you over me and I am the one in need? I just heard that a minister locked his congregation in the church and told them that he needed 40k! This faulters the faith and trust that people have in the minister.

    I just don't see the problem here. Having your own rent-an-angel for only a $1,000 seems like quite a bargain! But wait, there's more! Health and Prosperity!!! How could anyone turn this down? The only question I have is, how long do you get to have the angel? Is it like a couple of days or forever? Probably somewhere in between. (Buy now before supplies and angels run out)

  1. Robin Anne Hannon's Avatar Robin Anne Hannon

    There is nothing new here under the sun. I've seen many involved in the "prosperity" gospel taking scripture out of context to enrich themselves like this. This is harmful faith. It is based on greed. God can't be bought or sold, nor God's blessings. This is just one aspect of this foolishness. I've seen people literally stomp up to God and demand things, "claiming" new cars, or whatever their greed is lusting after at the moment. Frankly I believe God needs to be respected. I couldn't imagine stomping up to my earthly parents demanding money or whatever it was. Not unless I was wearing a helmet, and even then! To do this in the name of God is hypocritical. It is taking scripture out of context to suit One's greed. Last I looked God was not a heavenly butler, bank, or vending machine.

    Preachers have been asking for money from their congregations for years. It has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with the greed of the preacher. Rev. Al Sharpton always looks pretty well dressed. I am pretty sure he gets that from donations. Myriad bloodsucking leeches of preachers claim to be members of every party. I sense that the only reason this particular preacher is coming in to question is because of her connection to our current president, and the fascist-seeming efforts to silence, to squanch, to intimidate anyone even remotely connected to our President. Your worse than nazis, fascists, communists, combined. You are all bullies and you make me sick.

    Having been a scientific nutritional health writer for 20+ years my primary sources are like raw data, official documents, scientific studies, court records, and firsthand accounts like speeches and interviews because they’re unfiltered by someone else’s spin. Scientific journals with peer-reviewed studies are great for empirical claims but you’ve gotta watch for biases in funding or sample size.

    Statistics from government databases like the Census Bureau, BLS, or international bodies are usually reliable for numbers, though agendas can creep in, so the date needs to be verified. X posts can be useful for real-time takes or unfiltered opinions, but you’d need to sift through noise and check linked sources yourself—I can help with that if you point me to specifics.

    No source is infallible, so the best strategy is triangulation: compare primary data, expert analysis, and diverse perspectives, then reason it out.
