Joel Osteen Wins First Ever ‘Worst Easter Sermon Award’

Chris Rosebrough of Pirate Christian Radio has sent out a press release regarding Joel Osteen’s dubious new distinction: the winner of the first ever ”Worst Ever Easter Sermon Award.’ You have to work really hard to get there in this day and age. Christian Newswire has the story.

This year’s winner of the first ever, Worst Easter Sermon Award went to Joel Osteen’s sermon “You Have Come Back Power”.

Commenting on Osteen’s sermon Rosebrough stated, “Jesus didn’t die and rise again on the cross so that you can have ‘come back power over life’s set backs’. Osteen completely missed the point of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection and as a result he missed the entire point of Christianity.”

Said Rosebrough, “I wasn’t surprised that Osteen was the first winner of this award. Osteen is like the Tiger Woods of heresy, he takes false teaching to a whole new level.”

  1. Oh yeah, you have to work really hard to get this award... or you can just be hated by Chris Whatever-his-name-is. This is the most famous Chris Whatever has ever been. He's likely to name Joel Osteen every year. (ha-ha) I wonder if Chris W. considered his own sermon for this world famous honor... or does he even preach? Who knows???? What a loser.

  2. You really need to get a sense of humor and quit taking yourself so seriously. Many qualified Men of God have studied Osteen's teaching and found it wanting. Relax your way to easily offended,
