Victoria Osteen has always had a passion and energy for life that is contagious. A lifelong Houstonian, Victoria worked in her family’s jewelry business and attended the University of Houston. It was in that same jewelry store where she met Joel, her future husband. Joel and Victoria regularly accompanied Joel’s father on mission trips to India and around the world, reaching out and serving in some of the most impoverished areas of the globe. Her compassion and passion for ministry grew during these years as she faithfully served in many capacities. As co-pastor of Lakewood Church, Victoria is an integral part of each service and the Night of Hope worship events across the U.S. and abroad. As a wife and mother, Victoria is an inspiration and example to women who are balancing responsibilities both inside and outside the home. She is committed to empowering women, children, and families to connect and grow strong with a foundation of faith in Jesus Christ. This commitment and passion led her to begin the Women’s Ministry at Lakewood Church, which equips women at every stage in life – at home, in relationships, and at the workplace. Victoria is a New York Times bestselling author. Her first book, “Love Your Life,” was published by Simon & Schuster, followed by “Exceptional You!,” and “Fearless & Free,” both published by Hatchette. She is also a children’s author, releasing the “My Happy Heart” box set, “Unexpected Treasures,” and “Gifts from the Heart,” which are uplifting Christian children’s books that serve as a resource for parents who desire to raise their children in the knowledge of God’s goodness. Each week, Victoria hosts a live call-in radio show on Joel Osteen Radio, SiriusXM Channel 128. Her practical, down-to-earth wisdom and personal approach appeal to a wide range of listeners from all walks of life around the world. Joel and Victoria have two children, Jonathan and Alexandra, who both serve in the ministry at Lakewood Church. You can find daily inspiration from Victoria on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
