Bishop T. D. Jakes is a charismatic leader, visionary, provocative thinker who serves as senior pastor of The Potter's House, a global humanitarian organization and 30,000-member church located in Dallas, Texas.
TD Jakes was told he would never be able to preach because of his “bad” lisp. Shortly after his father’s death from kidney failure, Jakes decided to go into ministry.
In 1979, with very little funds of his own and with only ten initial members, he founded Greater Emmanuel Temple of Faith as a storefront church in Montgomery, West Virginia. - TD Jakes Sermons
