PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Osteen (Your Best Life Now) has his cultural and theological critics even as millions of followers enjoy his television broadcasts and buy his books. The pastor of the 45,000-member Lakewood Community Church in Houston acts as cheerleader and encourager, as pastors ought to do. The newest iteration of his simple belief system offers eight maxims to help a person understand and imitate the qualities of a successful individual: commit to excellence, serve others, etc. Osteen's eight undeniable winner qualities include the quintessentially American injunction to "think positive," and the book reads as much as business advice or self-help as it does pastoral counsel. It's clearly intended to speak beyond a small Christian audience; references to biblical sources and stories are general and lack detail. The question thoughtful people of faith ought to consider in thinking about Osteen's fast-food theology is, why are people eating it up? The question for booksellers is how many copies to stock.

A Very Good Read
I find that many of the stories in the book are the same as the stories in his sermons. For that reason I gave 4 out of 5 stars. Had i never heard his sermons I’m sure I would have given 5 out of 5. I feel revitalized and refreshed after reading this book; an excellent attitude check that we all need from time to time. I am seriously considering buying copies for my family!
Heresy once again
All I can say is this is not Christianity based on scripture. But it is a heretical teacher who is the judgement of God to those who listen to him. Because of the gospel he preaches which is nothing but a prosperity based lecture. This man does not want God! But he want and seeks the approval of wretched and vile men. The reason people listen to such heresy is because it tickles their ear and blinds them of the truth which demonstrates to men that everything of them is all damnable and only through Christ can we be save by his merit alone! This is the true gospel of Jesus Christ that he came and was crushed for sinners but only through him can one obtain eternal life and this is the true gospel. This is the scandal for men like osteen but it is nevertheless TRUE!!!
Keep 'em comin Joel!
Joel! Can you fly your personal jet(s) to Bangladesh and come preach to our village about repentance from sin and salvation in Christ alone? Oh, once you are done, feel free to ‘hit the road’ and keep writing these books, which are basically like mexican food! I love mexican food, especially how you can rearrange it in 20 different ways and call it something different each time! Just like your books, am I right or am I right?
