I posted something in another thread that I wondered about. I wanted to put it up for discussion.
I don't see how Christians can reconcile Joel Olsteen's theology with scripture. Now, I've only watched about 5 minutes of him. But besides his polished tele-evangelist style, I disagree with his whole ministry. As I understand it, he has it that if you pray for it, and your faith is strong, God will provide it. I've even heard it said that he will go so far as to say that God has no choice but to honor the prayer request of a faithful Christian.
Am I wrong? If I'm right, where is the supporting scripture in that?
