Israel Houghton and…

June 13th, 2006 · 2 Comments · 30 views

Alright - I’m surfing during one of the many commercial breaks during the Mavs-Heat game - which I’ll blog about next - and I zip by the lame Christian channels but hear a familiar voice.

I know that voice. That voice has done some youth camps and retreats I’ve done. That voice is….is Israel Houghton.

Back in the day, Israel was leading worship for Student Venture’s summer and mid-year conferences.

Now he’s wearing a suit. What the heck? Say it ain’t so, bro!!!

So I watch a little bit more…then I notice something else. He’s in an arena. I know this arena. Where have seen this arena before?

And Joel Osteen walks out…

Oh….

My….

Gosh….

I just wanted to cry….back to the game.

    Stick to the game.

    Mavs are going all the way. This is the best the Heat have and it isn’t enough.

    “He also serves as worship leader at Lakewood Church in Houston with Pastor Joel Osteen.
    However; simply put Israel says, “I am a husband to Meleasa, a father to Mariah, Israel II, and Milan Lily, and a Friend of God.””

    From his website… sorry man.
