Megachurch pastor, best-selling author, and perennial optimist Joel Osteen, 48, told reporters and editors at the Washington Times yesterday (October 24, 2011), "I see faith in America at an all-time high," according to the Times website.
"Yes, people are struggling, but our message is so much about hope," Osteen said.
Osteen's weekly television services are seen by seven million people in the U.S., as well as by people in almost 100 other countries.
"Part of our core message is that seasons change, and when you believe, if you don't get bitter, and you don't get discouraged, you may not change overnight, but you can get peace," Osteen said.

Americans' knowledge of Scripture is at an all-time low, but that doesn't matter to Osteen as much as "faith."
