Just saying....
 

quite a contrast between Joel Osteen and his 10.7 million dollar home and Pope Francis with his very humble lifestyle, both reaching to the multitude, but different strokes for different folks...:pray:

There is big money in religion. Ever been to the Vatican?

Too, the Mormon church may now be the largest landowner in Florida. Mormon church: Florida's biggest private landowner? - CSMonitor.com

Robert H. Schuller and Rick Warren have done well, too.

Pope Francis humble home
 

Vatican apartments home to many popes but not Pope Francis..(peoples pope).

$40 mil? a few years ago Bloomberg valued our local developer at $2.5 Billion!

Rev. Joel Osteen's sermons are very positive and motivating. His books worth reading. His church Lakewood is the largest with 35,000 plus attendance each week.

His father (as I remember).was the previous pastor of the Lakewood Church. The church is in Houston, Texas. Search your Television channels if you want to hear a positive motivating sermon.

Positive sermons
 

I agree. His sermons are positive and uplifting. He doesn't beg for money. He starts each service with a joke. I always feel a little better after listening to what he has to say.
