i like joel a lot. yes, he is up-lifting. no, he does not always talk about money as some have said. he talks about everyday problems and tries to lift you up with Gods word. yes, i believe you can receive it if you believe it.

Yes, Joel Osteen is well worth watching. He is uplifting and encouraging. I especially liked his "Making Wise Choices " series on cassettes. If you listen to Joel long enough and apply his messages to your life, your life will change for the better. God is using Joel Osteen to draw people to Him in these last days.

I do not watch Mr. Osteen because I do not have a t.v., however, I have heard his radio program enough times to realize that I am not missing anything by not watching him preach... He is a part of the Mega Church/ Zero Gospel group teaching modern psychology instead of the Bible.

I liked his Dad, John, better. I like Joel ok, and I think he is a gifted communicator with a good knowledge of scripture, but I do not like that he preaches so much of the prosperity doctrine. Much damage has been done to the Body globally through this doctrine. (Not just Joel- many others.) But overall, I like him with that one exception.

Love the Kindness he shows, but I fear he may try at times to sugar code things and evade topics that many should be aware of such as certain issues of immorality , and condemnation. this must be praeched so that people can prepare their lives and repnt to avoid the condemnation and the wrath to come

Read your bible (instead of Joel) and you will get closer to God.

Not if I can help it. He's nothing more than a religious cheerleader who; never preaches a gospel message. His type of music makes me sick to my stomach.
It's a "name-it", "claim-it" type "ministry".
A "happy feel good ministry"
It's easy to preach about wealth and prosperity when your wearing a $5,000 suite
