There is a song called "Jesus Walks" from his "College Dropout" album (2004). Are you sure his conversion is recent?
I'm pretty sure he's been a Christian the whole time, but likely was recently "Born again."

Jesus then gives examples of their hypocrisy, saying: “They broaden the scripture-containing cases that they wear as safeguards.” Some Jews wore on the forehead or on the arm these relatively small cases containing short passages from the Law. The Pharisees enlarge theirs to give the impression that they are zealous about the Law. Also, they “lengthen the fringes of their garments.” The Israelites were to make fringes on their garments, but the Pharisees make sure that their fringes are quite long. (Numbers 15:38-40) They do all of this “to be seen by men.”—Matthew 23:5.

Partnering with Osteen the king of shady. He had built an empire pyramid scheme style with "promises" from "god". He's getting rich by promising people they will get rich for making him rich.
