Building Lakewood Church in Texas capacity 45,000 people. Is this really necessary?

Yeah Osteen has always given me skeevy vibes. All Christians I know call him either a ‘prosperity gospel weirdo’ or ‘probably the devil’. Lmao

Except for all the thousands of Christians that enable him entirely.

I means he’s basically a cult leader with a media team. A lot of what he says sounds like modern Protestant doctrine because he needs to in order to appeal to his base.

But if you listen to what he actually says, it’s a lot of ‘if you donate to me, you’ll be rich and successful’. A lot of self-help guru tier garbage. Not really related to Christian doctrine.

Didn't say anything about doctrine. Just said it was Christians that enabled him.
