I am going to post this in both the gals and guys section.



Joel Osteen

I am wondering what people think of his sermons/or him? Do some people believe he sugarcoats subjects?





I don't know what most people think about him.

Sharing Hope for Today

We are so thankful for the opportunity to share the greatest message of all with individuals, families and communities all over the world. This ministry is committed to helping people from all walks of life experience the unconditional love and unending hope found only in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.



We Believe�

� the entire Bible is inspired by God, without error and the authority on which we base our faith, conduct and doctrine.

� in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to this earth as Savior of the world.

� Jesus died on the cross and shed His blood for our sins. We believe that salvation is found by placing our faith in what Jesus did for us on the cross. We believe Jesus rose from the dead and is coming again.

� water baptism is a symbol of the cleansing power of the blood of Christ and a testimony to our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

� in the regular taking of Communion as an act of remembering what the Lord Jesus did for us on the cross.

� every believer should be in a growing relationship with Jesus by obeying God�s Word, yielding to the Holy Spirit and by being conformed to the image of Christ.

� as children of God, we are overcomers and more than conquerors and God intends for each of us to experience the abundant life He has in store for us.

Mark 10:23 Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!" Mar 10:24 And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches [fn] to enter the kingdom of God! Mar 10:25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." 1Ti 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil : which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.



In Christ

Luke 9:23-26 [23] Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. [24] For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it. [25] What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self? Of course God gives us things, but if your faith is based on what you get on this earth then what happens when you lose everything? If your wife dies in a wreck if your kids die in a flood and you lose your house, car, job and freedom what will your God be to you then? It happened to Job didnt it? Yet God was still worthy of praise. if God never gave you or any human the gift of salvation would he still be worth of praise? Ill answer for you,Yes. After all he didnt make a way for satan and his fallen angels did he? But he is still worthy of praise! It is easy to praise him when you get good things but when you praise him in the midst of pain it shows to the world how worth and holy he really is.





In Christ

One thing you'll notice about Joel, one thing that I've noticed anyway, is that he blinks alot, that may be random, but I have a hard time watching him, because it makes me want to blink, lol.
