Jim Bakker Suffers Stroke

This comes right from the Jim Bakker Show Facebook page and was written by his wife. Apparently Jim has be smote with the same thing that Michael Pearl has experienced, a stroke. Just saw it on Hemant Mehta’s page The Friendly Atheist.

From the Bakker’s Facebook page:

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

Looks like that Silver Solution is not the be all and end all of health supplements. Will be interesting to follow this story and see how it plays out. We have watched as Michael Pearl of No Greater Joy has gone in for scam stem cell treatments and virtually disappeared for long stretches from that ministry.

I can tell you from my own personal post stroke experience it takes some months to approach normal again. No matter how mild. To adjust to your new medication regime, your diet and everything else. It was pretty awful As much as I dislike the scammy ness of their ministry with the food buckets and Silver Solution I would not wish this on any one.  More as this develops.
