Osteen on White Horse Inn

The latest edition of The White Horse Inn deals with Joel Osteen. I know this is kind of hashed to death in blogs and in the media, etc, but I felt like they brought something new to the table that I have not heard before: Actually excerpts from his books. Dr. Horton reads a long excerpt from Osteens latest book and it's really staggering how unorthodox it is. This guy is really preaching a different religion that Christianity. Scary stuff. The White Horse Guys do a good job breaking it down.

I think Joel has good intentions. I think he is horribly misinformed and honestly doesn't know what he is doing. I just wish he would call it something other than Christianity.

Check out the podcast here.

Hello! I stumbled on your blog and thought I post a comment.
For more on Osteen's Latest book, Dr. Horton did a review of it recently. It is linked to here:

Hey Zach,
Thanks for sharing this podcast. I was just talking with my Bible study group about this stuff last night. I agree, that it is scary.

One more thing...how do we respond to Christian Bookstores who have huge racks full of Joel Osteen books?
