Joel Osteen Takes Message of Hope to New Radio Show
SiriusXM is hosting “Joel Osteen Radio,” which it bills as a “new exclusive channel headlined by the renowned spiritual and inspirational figure.” SiriusXM channel 128 is available on satellite radios, through the SiriusXM Internet Radio App and at SiriusXM.com.
Osteen is the senior pastor of Lakewood Church, America’s largest Christian congregation. He opened the channel this week with a special Town Hall broadcast event from the SiriusXM studios in New York City alongside his wife, Victoria. The couple answered questions from an audience of SiriusXM listeners for the inaugural broadcast on Monday.
“Victoria and I are excited to partner with SiriusXM and to bring a message of hope to millions of listeners,” Osteen said. “More than ever before, people are looking for hope in their lives. I believe listeners will be uplifted and filled with an expectation that their best days are still out in front of them.”
Joel Osteen Radio will showcase exclusive weekly call-in shows hosted by both Joel and Victoria. Joel Osteen Live will debut next Monday and air every Monday at 5 p.m. EST, giving listeners the ability to interact directly with Joel, who will offer advice and encouragement for leading a fuller life.
“The Osteens’ new channel will deliver their message across the country, reaching listeners at a time in our world when inspiration is especially needed,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s president and chief content officer.
“From call-in shows with Joel and Victoria, to broadcasts of the weekly live services from Lakewood Church, to the archive of Joel’s sermons, the depth of programming on the channel will be remarkable.”
Victoria Osteen will begin hosting her weekly show, Victoria Osteen Live, on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 12 p.m. EST. The program will feature Victoria taking calls from her listeners, sharing her perspective on family and faith, and talking with special guests.
Listeners will also get the exclusive live radio broadcast of services from Lakewood Church in Houston, on Saturdays at 7 p.m. EST, and Sundays at 9:30 a.m. and 12 p.m. EST. Sunday’s 12 p.m. service will replay at 3 p.m., giving listeners across the country an additional opportunity to tune in.
