Bishop T.D. Jakes is in stable condition after suffering a medical emergency during his church service on Sunday.
Footage from his live stream showed the 67-year-old pastor speaking to his congregation and then suddenly he dropped his microphone and fell silent. Jake suddenly started to tremble uncontrollably in his chair, prompting those nearby to quickly gather around him to offer their assistance.

Voices could be heard urging others to “step back” and “give him room” just as the livestream abruptly ended. Meanwhile, someone off-screen requested both the congregation and the online audience to “start praying.”
Shortly following the event, Jake’s team turned to X (previously known as Twitter) to provide an update regarding the pastor’s health.
