Number one he’s not a Christian pastor. He has no training whatsover in preaching the gospel. He’s never been to any type seminary, bible college, or anything else. I would suspect he got his “training” selling a pyramid scheme, or was a very good used car salesman. Number two, he hardly ever mentions Jesus Christ. It’s all about me, me, me, and you, you, you. God wants you to be happy. He (God) wants you to be prosperous and be as rich as you can be. If you send me $20, you will get $40 in return. The reason? God wants you to be happy. That’s Osteen in a nutshell.

The Pharisees told Pilot something very similar! I’m not claiming that Joel, nor his wife, are Christ. This phrase just jumped out at me!

He’s under selling it. Mike Murdock promises 1000 to 1.

He literally inherited his church from his daddy who was just as bad

Smaller congregation

The Osteens have a tradition to uphold
