Bishop T. D. Jakes is a charismatic leader, visionary, provocative thinker, and entrepreneur who serves as senior pastor of The Potter’s House, a global humanitarian organization and 30,000-member church located in Dallas.
Named America’s Best Preacher by Time Magazine, Jakes’ voice reverberates from the world’s most prominent stages. Through his nexus of charitable works, Jakes is known for extending a hand of help to the needy, heart of compassion to the hurting, and message of inspiration to the disenfranchised.
Beyond the pulpit, Jakes ranks among EBONY’s Power100 and is the winner of several prestigious awards including BET Honors, Stellar Award, NAACP Image Award, Keeper of the Dream Award and McDonald’s 365Black Award for his humanitarian efforts. His worldwide impact is also felt through high profile conference series such as MegaFest, which recently drew more than 75,000 participants and an empire that spans film, television, radio, best-selling books and the T.D. Jakes School of Leadership.
Jakes has made his presence felt in Hollywood, producing and appearing in a number of films. Jakes has worked on Winnie Mandela, starring Jennifer Hudson, Sparkle, featuring Jordin Sparks and the late Whitney Houston, On the Seventh Day, Miracles from Heaven, and Jumping the Broom, an award-winning romantic comedy that debuted as the No. 1 comedy and grossed nearly seven times its budget in 2011.
Jakes and his wife are proud parents to five children and three grandchildren. He credits his own parents as the source of his perseverance and sense of self-reliance.
After more than 40 years in ministry, Jakes continues to be a leading voice of innovation, inspiration, and influence in Christendom today.
