preacher ??

I don't. I find tv pastors to be extremely repetitive and, sadly, most are after the money and fame. I am already a Christian though. I don't need to hear about the first step. I need what my pastor and church provide for me, ways and training on continuing to serve and follow Jesus. I'm sure that Mr. Osteen is wonderful for the people who do watch him. I know several people who do. I just don't like the styles that are used. Kind of like scratching people's itches, instead of saying the truth; if you are breaking commandments or God's laws (smoking, drinking, sex before marriage, living together before marriage, tattoos, etc.) then you are on a path to hell. This is what ALL should be saying. The Truth, what the Bible says. Not saying its ok to be in the situation you are in, because to God, it isn't ok. The Bible clearly states it isn't. This is why so many people think as long as they know Jesus died on the cross, then they are going to Heaven. That isn't true though. It is sad to think of how many people have no idea. Anyway, that is my answer. God Bless.

Yes I like to listen to him. He's a very daily living bible principle teaching guy. He's easy to follow and talks about stuff that has to do with everyday life. I also like Joyce Meyers.

I do at times. I think he shares the Word of the Lord. I don't know if he is "living" the Word of the Lord, but I listen to him. I just research what he says with what is written in the Bible (as I do with all teachers of the Word). I seek the truth myself.

I like him. His sermons are based on Scripture, and applying scripture to daily life. He isn't for everybody, but his style reaches a lot of people who otherwise may not hear the Word of God. God has used him to minister to me through a lot of rough times.

I think he is very positive in his approach to scripture--almost a modern Norman Vincent Peale, and you can see his appeal---he seems to be doing a great job. Honestly, however, I liked listening to his Dad more when he was alive.

I listen to him for an hour today and he never once taught on the word of God. Maybe that's why him and his wife got kicked off of jet plane for picking a fight with the stewardess.

"preacher"..???? I think not.

Yes, because he always has a personnel experience. He talks nicely. I like to listen to him a lot. I like to listen to Joyce Meyer too.

Don't like or dislike, but he appears to happy and making money from all his hard work. Making a lot of people happy, translates to making money. I don't think there is anything wrong with that.
