Joel Osteen- HOUSTON – $10.5 MILLION
Who rivals Joel Osteen these days? We believe that Joyce Meyers, Pat Robertson, and Jimmy Swaggart are some of those that compete with Osteen in the area of televangelism, but when it comes to money, he appears to have a lead. Literally, 10 million viewers have seen hundreds of his televised sermons. On top of that, he has also written a lot of best-selling books. Despite his fame, Osteen has been criticized for not practicing what he preaches when he was denied access to a megachurch at the height of Hurricane Harvey in 2017.
The pastor lives in one of the wealthiest districts in America, River Oaks in Houston. His house is reportedly worth $10.5 million. Guess what is inside? Apart from six bedrooms, it has five open wood fireplaces, a one-bed guest house, a pool house, and three elevators. Its front door is impressive, and its flooring all solid. The driveway could even fit as many as 20 cars for when he hosts a party with other pastors.
