Bishop T.D. Jakes Stable After Health Scare During Sunday Sermon

Bishop T.D. Jakes reassures congregation after health incident during sermon.

Bishop T.D. Jakes, a prominent megachurch pastor and influential faith leader, experienced a health incident during his sermon at The Potter’s House in Dallas, Texas, on Sunday.

The 67-year-old pastor, known for his powerful and inspiring messages, appeared visibly shaken and paused mid-sermon as individuals approached him on stage, according to social media footage.

The Potter’s House, the nondenominational church he founded in 1996, issued a statement shortly after, confirming that Bishop Jakes had a “slight health incident” and received immediate medical attention. “Bishop Jakes is stable and under the care of medical professionals,” the statement assured, thanking the community for their support.

The congregation of more than 30,000 members rallied with an outpouring of prayers and well-wishes for Jakes, whose pastoral influence spans decades. Faith leaders from across the country also expressed their concern and support.

Bishop William Murphy of The dReam Center Church in Atlanta remarked, “We want to thank God for keeping our beloved bishop,” adding that the incident serves as a reminder for believers to stay steadfast in faith. Pastor Dr. Jamal Bryant of New Birth Cathedral echoed these sentiments, describing Jakes as a spiritual father and role model.

Bishop Jakes’ reach extends far beyond Dallas, with services that draw thousands weekly and initiatives like the popular MegaFest, which epitomize his leadership in modern Christianity.

While the exact cause of the incident remains undisclosed, the community continues to pray for his full recovery. For now, Bishop Jakes is said to be stable as he remains under medical care.
