Joel Osteen doesn't have a church. He has a country club.

Is the church flooded though? Is it safely accessible?


I live within blocks of it and never got any serious flooding. I bet some of the underground parking in greenway plaza has water in it. However, as it is right now I don't doubt the church could be used but most of the parking is underground so there are better spots

Same graphic could be made for freaking politicians and the government. That's a stupid picture.

I hope you realize that these mega churches aren't the norm and there's thousands upon thousands of other churches doing the right thing with the leaders of the churches making average salaries.

He's not really a "preacher". He's more of a "Tony Robbins"

I'm sure this is more of a case of people wanting to attack without knowing all the facts. Everyone is the judge, jury, and executioner nowadays.

I don't get why people just expect rich people to give away all their money everytime someone needs it.

All the communists are trying to tell this guy how to run his business. Why don't you start your own company and you can open it up for whatever you want? Bunch of worthless hippie shite bags.....

Exactly. His "church" isn't part of any larger organization, like the Southern Baptist Convention, UMC, PCA, etc. Any non-denominational group like this is a business.

That's sad. I wonder if, like my church in DFW, they are actually organizing any relief efforts and the media is using this to smear them? I understand if nobody can get to the church, though.
