What Happened to Bishop T.D. Jakes?

T.D. Jakes had a medical emergency as he was rounding up a sermon on Sunday. One of Bishop Jakes’ kids, daughter Sarah Jakes Roberts, and her husband, Toure Roberts, were both present. The two, who often deliver sermons at the Potter’s House and are co-pastors at one of the Church’s branches in Los Angeles, gave an update on Instagram late Sunday. 

“Obviously, today could have been a tragic day, but it wasn’t; by the mercy of God, by the grace of God, Bishop is doing well, he’s recovering well, he’s under medical care, he’s strong,” said Toure Roberts. “We’re trying to get him to sit down, he’s the strong Bishop that we know, but we really can’t thank you enough for your prayers.”

T.D. Jakes’ daughter also expressed gratitude that he is beginning to improve. She explained it is a reminder to “love on the people who you hold near and dear and just take the time to be grateful for all the people God’s given you” this holiday season.
