60 years (March 5, 1963)Joel Osteen / Age

Osteen is a motivational speaker with a religious bent, which makes him highly accessible but also a target for criticism. “That's all I thought I'd do with my life,” Osteen says.

Osteen says that as senior pastor, he draws no salary from the church, which has an annual budget of $70 million, and that he instead relies on income from book sales.

Joel Osteen, (born March 5, 1963, Houston, Texas, U.S.), American televangelist, theologian, speaker, and author who attracted millions of followers with his simple and positive sermons and his best-selling books. Osteen's parents founded the nondenominational charismatic Lakewood Church in Houston in 1959.

Osteen's sermons and writings are sometimes criticized for promoting prosperity theology, or the prosperity gospel, a belief that the reward of material gain is the will of God for all pious Christians.

Practice well ahead of time. I've heard Osteen say that he prepares for five days ahead of each sermon. That means he begins to prepare, write, and rehearse on a Wednesday for the following Sunday's sermon. He'll spend hours for each 30-minute presentation and he starts fresh every week.

The United Church believes in God the creator, the Holy Spirit as divine inspiration and Jesus Christ as God's son, messenger, teacher and standard for peace and justice in the world.
