Lakewood is a watered down version of true Christian services.
Joel learned the tent revival preaching from his daddy and softened it to make you feel good about yourself.
When you feel good about yourself, you tithe more money.
And you lose you sense of guilt for not being a "good" little Christian.
If you want to feel good about yourself, Lakewood is the place.
If you want to practice the Christian faith, go elsewhere.

I have never heard anything bad about it. Everyone that I know who goes there have had nothing but good things to say about it.
No fraud has ever been suggested or otherwise stated on that church. The only negative thing I have heard was Olsteens wife lost her temper on a plane. Give me a break. She is only human and Christians are not as perfect that is why they have their believes.

Lake Wood Church is an evil institution which has a fake prophet trying to rip all the ignorants off. They just want your money. Nobody is that nice...DUH!
