The people criticizing Joel Osteen feel like fools since he's opened Lakewood for Houstonians affected by Hurricane Harvey.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) August 29, 2017
Megachurch Houston pastor Joel Osteen has been crucified for not doing enough to help Houstonians that have been affected by Harvey. I've read the twitter hashtags, the FB comments, etc. Honestly, I'm sick and tired of folks talking junk about Joel Osteen. Joel Osteen's not doing this, he's not doing that and so on. Houston is the 4th largest city in the nation (2.4 million in the city limits, 6.5 million in the metro), and I'm sure Joel isn't the only Houston pastor. He may be the most famous Houston pastor, but anyway...people need to let the man be great. What's really the problem is some people are jealous of Joel Osteen's success. I'm sure he does a lot for Houston (as he should, since he resides in Houston), and from what I read, he's opened Lakewood Church for shelter, so what do those clowns who talked mess about him have to say now? I'll wait.
While some people are talking mess about what Joel Osteen is or isn't doing, what are THEY doing to help those affected by Harvey? It's easy to sit back and criticize from your smartphone, computer or IPad tablet while others are out there trying to make a difference. What's ironic about this backlash is that none of the foolishness that people are saying about Joel not opening up Lakewood is true. The following link proves this:
How can anyone expect the man to open his church when portions of his church was flooded? El Stupido.
