I don't expect them to live in cardboard boxes and I confess I have not impacted as many people as they have but, seriesly, c'mon, the incessant guilt-trip pleas for money to feed the poor while they live in mansions and drive limos and whatnot seems a little out of sync with what Jesus taught.
But that's just me.
“”Nothing against Billy Graham, Franklin Graham, Ric Warren, etc.””
Why would you lump the Grahams in with Osteen? Their ministry has been nothing like Osteen’s and as far as I know, neither has their style of living. Can’t say the same for Rick Warren as his ministry is just as meaningless and I don’t know if he lives lavishly. Warren’s sermons are meant to make you feel good and BE SUCCESSFUL. He really doesn’t care about your soul.
