It’s probably a little unfair not to point out that Osteen apologised for his response.
You’ve probably already read Kevin DeYoung’s response: http://thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/kevindeyoung/2010/04/27/1592/

Did he say the wrong thing? In some ways he said the right thing he just didn’t say it fully. He could have said much much more. But I don’t think he exactly said the wrong thing.
