I've had similar experiences. There are some TV preachers I cannot stand that others tell me they love and get help from, so what do I know? Not much.
However, the more I learn, the more I want to know and Osteen can be somewhat superficial sometimes, as you say.
On the other hand, sometimes superficial is about all I'm good for, so that works for me. :)
If you're interested, BBN radio has some good segments. I like the Adrian Rogers sermons they broadcast at 9:30 am and then Chuck Swindall at 10:30. Every now and then they'll broadcast one of Ravi Zacharias' sermons and he can make me think.
WTCG has a local station I can pick up most of the time. I have no idea who all they broadcast, but some are awesome.
Osteen is still my default choice while driving, though. He helps keep me sane and serene in traffic and for that I'm grateful!
If that’s your worst problem, then you don’t know what trouble is.

Where’s Osteen stand on this sort of thing? Oh, that’s right, he doesn’t talk about it does he?
