Joel Osteen's prosperity gospel

Cypress said:
When the native Houstonian Joel Osteen decided to buy a luxury home outside of Texas, he didn't look at Nebraska, Oklahoma, Alabama, or West Virginia as potential second homes.

He bought a luxury beach front mansion in Newport Beach, California.

omg. stop the presses.
 

​

  • Initial Controversy: Osteen faced backlash for not immediately opening Lakewood Church—one of the largest churches in the U.S.—as a shelter during the early days of the flooding.
  • Response: After public pressure and media scrutiny, Lakewood Church opened its doors to evacuees and became a distribution center for supplies and aid.
  • Disaster Overview: Over the July 4th weekend in 2025, flash floods devastated Camp Mystic and surrounding areas, killing at least 27 people and leaving others missing.
  • Community Response: Vigils and support efforts were held in Houston, including a gathering at the Church of St. John the Divine, but there is no mention of Joel Osteen or Lakewood Church being involved in relief efforts for this specific disaster.

If you think it's good optics for a committed man of God, a pastor, a witness for Jesus Christ to be living a lavish and extravagant life of wealth and indulgence that's your choice.

So what? You don't live with him, so what exactly does he do? Like I already pointed out, he's living far below his means, and he's given away around 70% of what he's raked in, plus paid a shitload in taxes. I think you're just jealous, and have some stupid idea Jesus wanted everybody to be poorer than dirt or something. Also it's obvious you've never watched his broadcasts, so you're just parroting some faggot tabloid hacks.

Rubbish. Early on he was concerned people would get trapping flood waters trying to reach the church; when they found out the route was safe they gave the okay.

You're just retarded Jake. Keep parroting halfwits you follow on duh innernutz like a good little dumbass.
