Osteen's Lakewood Church, which seats 16,000 people, didn't open until Tuesday, as representatives claimed it was inaccessible due to flooding. But after internet sleuths shared photos of the church entry appearing accessible on social media, pressure mounted. The wealthy televangelist hasn't said it was the Twitter shaming that got him to open the doors, but rather he noted on the Todayshow that the church didn't open because the city of Houston hadn't requested it to do so. Once Lakewood did open, people seeking shelter flocked to the church.
