I believe that all the churches are going to continue to grow. I think faith in America is at an all-time high. And I think as we continue to help people and to change with the time, to be relevant and practical.
Joel OsteenGod didn't create any of us to be average. He didn't make us to barely get by. We were created to excel.
Joel OsteenI believe God wants you to have money to pay your bills, send your kids to college and do charity work and build orphanages. There's the teaching that we're supposed to be poor to show that we're humble. I don't buy that. I think we're supposed to be leaders. We're supposed to excel.
Joel OsteenYour past does not determine who you are. Your past prepares you for who you are to become.
Joel OsteenWhen you go through a loss, a disappointment or a bad break up, don't expect to come out the same. Expect to come out better off than you were before.
Joel OsteenI just think that it's strong and it's important that we recognize what the Christmas season is about; it's about the birth of our Savior, and there's a lot of pressure today to be politically correct ,but people are realizing, too, that you have to be open to express your faith what you want believe.
