Victoria Osteen, wife of renowned megachurch preacher Joel Osteen, serves as a co-pastor at Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas. The couple, who met in 1985 and married in 1987, lead the largest congregation in the United States. Victoria is recognized for sharing messages of hope, healing, and forgiveness. However, she has faced criticism in recent years due to a viral video clip where she tells congregants that obedience, worship, and church attendance are for their own benefit, not for God. Despite the controversy, Victoria remains an influential figure in the ministry alongside her husband.
