Many of today's Mega Churches are part of the Prosperity Gospel movement (Joel Osteen, etc). They tend to preach that material goods, health, social position, etc are rewards that mankind deserves for faith. The poor are poor simply because their faith isn't strong enough. They probably believe that Jesus would drive a Ferrari or Bentley. Scarry thought.
