Bishop TD Jakes thanks people who prayed for him and he is out of the hospital.
Bishop T.D. Jakes, the renowned pastor and founder of The Potter’s House in Dallas, is in stable condition and recovering well after a health scare during a Sunday sermon on November 24, 2024. The incident occurred while he was delivering a powerful message to his congregation. Witnesses described how he suddenly paused, appeared to tremble, and sat down while lowering his microphone. Members of the congregation and his team quickly attended to him, and the church livestream was cut off shortly after.
Following the incident, Bishop Jakes received immediate medical attention. His family later reassured the public that the 67-year-old leader is recovering under the care of medical professionals. His daughter, Sarah Jakes Roberts, expressed gratitude for the prayers and support received, calling the outcome a testament to divine mercy. She and her husband also humorously mentioned their efforts to convince him to rest more, acknowledging his relentless dedication to ministry.
The Potter’s House released a statement thanking the public for their understanding and continued prayers, emphasizing that Bishop Jakes’ condition was stable after what they referred to as a “slight health incident.” This moment has reminded his family, congregation, and followers of the importance of care and support for loved ones.
Known for his global influence in ministry, Bishop Jakes has been a spiritual leader and motivational figure for decades, guiding a congregation of over 30,000 members at The Potter’s House and impacting millions worldwide. His family and church continue to ask for prayers as he recuperates.
