Televangelism is OMG but I Digress
Joel Osteen had a father, John, who was also a preacher who became a successful televangelist, taught his son the ropes and then left him the family business after dying suddenly of heart attack. Although Joel attended Oral Roberts University, he never graduated and studied radio and tv production rather than theology or divinity. The following was reported this morning. I'm looking forward to further details on this story.
Dec. 3 (UPI) -- A plumber working at Joel Osteen's mega-church in Houston found a large amount of money hidden inside a wall seven years after $600,000 was reported stolen during a break-in.
The plumber, who identified himself only as Justin, called into a KILT-FM morning show to recount how he found envelopes full of cash and checks inside a wall while doing work at the Lakewood Church, which is led by Osteen and his wife, Victoria.
Illinois had a popular Secretary of State, Paul Powell. Although Powell's government salary was never more than $30,000 a year, shoeboxes, briefcases and strongboxes with over $750,000 in cash were found in his hotel suite residence at the St. Nicholas Hotel in Springfield, Illinois within days of his death.
