Joel Osteen is the pastor of America’s largest church, one of the most popular inspirational figures in the U.S., and a #1 New York Times best-selling author. His first book, Your Best Life Now, was on the NYT Bestsellers List for more than 100 weeks and along with ancillary titles has sold more than 10 million units in the U.S. to date. Joel has written 12 national bestsellers and has sold millions worldwide including a million+ copies in both South Korea and Indonesia.
In October 1999, following the passing of his father and Lakewood Church’s founder, John Osteen, Joel became the Senior Pastor of Lakewood Church. Under his leadership, Lakewood’s weekly attendance grew from an average of 5,000 to over 50,000, and Lakewood became the largest church in the U.S. according to Forbes, Outreach magazine, and Church Growth Today.
In 2003, Lakewood Church acquired the Compaq Center, home of the NBA’s Houston Rockets, and spent the next 18 months renovating the arena at a cost of $105 million. On July 15th, 2005, Lakewood held the first of seven weekly worship services in the new 16,000-seat auditorium and within the year had become the most popular tourist destination in Houston, according to the Houston Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Joel Osteen is one my all time favorites. I’ve been listening to him for 15 years. And, you’re right. If you’re ever having a down day-his podcasts (30 minutes) always lift me up. And, his joke in the beginning always make me laugh.

A lot of migrants go through an identity crisis and unless it is adjusted to becoming who we really are, it eats into our general wellbeing. If unchecked it spills over and hurts people. Hurting people hurt themselves and hurt others they encounter. Joel Osteen shines the Lord's love in his ministry. Thanks, Lewis Howes for bringing him on your channel.

One of my happiest days was when I visited Lakewood church. The energy there is so powerful. I was crying so many times.. I love Joel ❤ He helped me to go through difficult times via his preachings lots of times 🙏🏽

[@verayari]

Lewis, thank you for bringing Pastor Joel Osteen to SOG! I truly respect this man's faith, positivity, energy and love for people. So many great nuggets! I loved when he said, "Call out the seeds of greatness in others" and "Sometimes we try to get things out of people, they don't have to give...Celebrate their strengths, Don't focus on their weaknesses " These two life principles are full of grace and wisdom. I am going to be intentional about applying these two in my life.

I've never looked at a relationship that way. Maybe that's why I'm still single. But lately I've been working on myself and learning a lot. I have to say Lewis, your videos have been helping me a lot. I think one of the first videos I watched was one with Dr.Joe Dispenza. That video took me a different level of my journey and since then I've been listening to lot of your podcasts here on KZbin. I'm really thankful to you for helping me to open the door to "Work on myself". You're doing an amazing art of work for other. Thank you!

[@christopheremeanua3131]

Joel is a blessing, I like the way he preaches and speaks about challenges and struggles that we go through daily. Christian religion is facing a lot challenges at this point in history and we love a few Christian leaders who step up and do things differently.

[@divine5353]

LEWIS, love the end part of this video. I wish many men would listen to your words with an open heart. Soul connection is the most important element. With that comes unconditional love... which makes easy to deal with life together. Makes easy to show up everyday with a open heart. But, it must be mutual. One way street will not work. You give hope for women like me that have been patiently waiting for the right soul connection (mature man)... someone aligned with themselves, and with their divinity. Blessings to you and Marta.

I totally agree with what you are saying....The fact is, BTC is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now if this is right time to invest? before jumping into conclusion i think you should take a look at things first. for the past few days the price of BTC has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you cant tell if it is going bearish or bullish. while others still continue to trade without the fear of making lose, others are being patient. it all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signals. i would say trading has been going smoothly for me, i started with 5 BTC and i have accumulated over 20 BTC in just three weeks, with the trading strategy given to me by expert trader

Curious to know why you think he is controversial. I've listened to him for over 3 years and can only see a man who is doing his best to uplift humanity.

[@winbalingit8502]

@@ekeasonye7189 because he has a million dollar home and car collection, and he denied shelter to the hurricane victims, that all caused a huge controversy!!

Big hug and positive vibes from California!!!😎✌🏽

[@OzmaOfOzz]

@@ekeasonye7189 he's considered controversial because a lot of Christians say he's just a motivational speaker, an influencer , and not a pastor like his dad was. He says very well here that his dad was good for the time he lived in, but that type of preaching might not be the type that goes through people in our day and age. So some people say he's a wolf in sheep's clothing, yadda yadda yadda 🙄 I think he's great. His dad was wonderful too. They're equally amazing, just different types of approaching.

[@OzmaOfOzz]

@@winbalingit8502 so what if he has a million dollar home and car collection. Spiritual people shouldn't make money, I wonder ? They shouldn't enjoy the good things in life? As for the hurricane shelter for victims, I don't know anything. Was he supposed to give them shelter in his own house or what was the situation ?

[@ChristianaSenibo]

I love what Joel said about keeping respect in a relationship. It’s easy to become complacent with the people we love and we can sometimes become over familiar that we take lightly the gift that our partners are. Love Joel Osteen 💜

[@jodijones33]

If you are finding that you do not have close intimate relationships with people and you're not finding true love in this world and you are not finding someone who can be intimate and vulnerable with you, it is likely because you are the one who needs to be more vulnerable, open up to others more and be intimate with others. When you show more love to others, you will get it in return. It is the same principle as to cure loneliness you don't need to surround yourself with more people but you need to show yourself more vulnerable. It all starts with us. ❤️

[@Linda_W.]

Hi Lewis, I'm a fairly new subscriber, so I've only seen a few of your videos, but I loved this! I love Joel Osteen, and that's why I watched, but the last half where you talk and share what you've learned has been so refreshing, and invaluable to me. I watch a lot of interviews, and those are great, but having a content creator just sit and talk "one on one," with their audience is refreshing, as I said, because I'm able to focus more, and really hear what's being said, because I'm not having to focus on two people, and what each person is saying, and how each is reacting, if that makes sense. I have known for a while now about the aspect of NOT building on a sexual foundation, so this wasn't exactly new, but I did learn the steps in how to go about achieving this from watching today. You laid out practical ways to approach building a meaningful relationship, and that's not something that's always achieved in an interview because two people are trying to get their viewpoints across, and there isn't always time to reach that deep level of conversation that really teaches in a practical way. So, thank you for spending this time doing that one on one with your audience. As I said, it was invaluable to me because I learned more this way as opposed to trying to glean information from two parties at once. It was rather like having a heart to heart with a mentor. So, I appreciate you, brother for doing this in this video. I will probably watch it several more times, knowing that as I do, I will pick up on things that I didn't pick up on before. This teaching is so important. So glad you shared this. I just know that there are countless people you've helped today by presenting on this more personable level. I can't thank you enough, Lewis, really. Peace and blessings.

I love knowing how proud he is of you from his special place in Heaven!! My dad was such a proud Usher, and mom loved your mom so much! ❤️

I have to say also how GREAT your final commentary was! Your passion for what you do is so apparent and so genuine! I’m so thankful for your mission!

Thank you so much! This was super validating to me and exactly what i needed at the right time! I began to 2nd guess and then this - all good and perfect things to you Lewis - can’t make myself smaller and same values are crucial. If u and yours are ever in San Antonio - let’s all go salsa dancing 😊

[@itsYourChance]

I always love hearing him. Its like good advice. ..like a good parents guidance. Never had that voice of encouragement and wisdom. So many so negative..hes refreshing

[@giantonamission]

Yes! Thanks so much Lewis for this episode. I appreciated the things Joel shated but what struck me the most was your willingness to share from your heart in the latter part. The 4 areas and the questions to help us analyse our past relationships.

[@lewishowes]

You're welcome,thank you for being here 💜

[@DublinNutritionClub]

Yes! I love Joel Osteen

[@aliceelina1280]

I totally agree with what you are saying....The fact is, BTC is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now if this is right time to invest? before jumping into conclusion i think you should take a look at things first. for the past few days the price of BTC has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you cant tell if it is going bearish or bullish. while others still continue to trade without the fear of making lose, others are being patient. it all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signals. i would say trading has been going smoothly for me, i started with 5 BTC and i have accumulated over 20 BTC in just three weeks, with the trading strategy given to me by expert trader

I love how respectful Lewis is of the different language. And how mindful Pastor Osteen was being about his messaging. Both men were so authentic and respectful. Gives me so much hope that we can be different but we can coexist and co-create. I also appreciate how Joel makes biblical scripture relevant to real life. He makes scripture so practical.
