It’s literally a former basketball arena. I’ve been there when the Rockets used to play there, it is HUGE could hold 20,000.

Supposedly the public shame and ridicule and photographic proof that this place isn’t flooded has forced him to open his doors… supposedly.

If people’s lives are saved, I’ll be delighted and thank God, but I’ll still be furious it took him this long to even consider it, only after all that backlash. The mosques, synagogues, and schools didn’t need thousands of people shouting at them to open their doors. And this is all from a man who pretends he preaches the gospel (he doesn’t, but that’s a story for another day). It’s the sad state of Christianity in America today.

Also, I would not put it past Osteen to have him hastily throw down a few mattresses in a hallway, take a photo, and call it a day just so people would get off his back. We should keep pressuring him to keep us updated to make sure people are being served.
