Message from Lori Bakker:
As a family and staff, we continue to fight the good fight of faith and take a stand against the evil forces and hatred that has come against our ministry.
In Jim’s words, this has been the most vicious attack that he has ever experienced.
For many years now, Jim has been working non-stop, working hard to bring incredible prophets and guests to our show, discovering and developing new products to share, building at Morningside, and bringing forth the message for the days that we are living in. All of these projects, and the vigorous warfare that we have experienced in the last several weeks, have taken a huge toll on Jim’s health.
I wanted to share with you, our loving and caring partners, that Jim recently experienced a stroke. We are thankful that Jim is okay, and that he is now at home with our family. Under the guidance of medical professionals and our Board of Directors, Jim will be taking a sabbatical from the show. Jim will be back! He is still dreaming and hearing from the Lord, and he already has a powerful word to deliver when he returns to the air.
In the meantime, the show will continue. Jim is a Watchman on the Wall, and we as a family are committed to carrying his mantle by bringing more prophets, news, updates, and more in the coming weeks on The Jim Bakker Show.
We ask that you continue to pray for Jim, and pray for our ministry, during these challenging times. As Jim always says, God loves you, He really does! And so do we!
Love,
Lori

Jim's son, Jay, said the stroke was a minor one, and the family expects him to be back selling his freezed dried slop and books from the various guests on his show.
“We are thankful that Jim is okay, and that he is now at home with our family,” Lori Bakker posted on the show’s Facebook page.I like the last paragraph.
“Under the guidance of medical professionals and our Board of Directors, Jim will be taking a sabbatical from the show,” Lori Bakker said. “Jim will be back! He is still dreaming and hearing from the Lord, and he already has a powerful word to deliver when he returns to the air.”
She did not say when Bakker suffered the stroke. She asked for prayers for her husband and for the couple’s ministry.
Bakker’s son posted: “Your thoughts are appreciated.”
“I know some of you struggle with humanizing my father, but he is also a good grandpa and my dad,” Jay Bakker, pastor of Revolution Church in Minneapolis, said in his post. “We have a complicated relationship like a lot of folks ... His life has influenced mine, as well as my work.”
