Today's Minister: BISHOP T.D. JAKES

Bishop Thomas Dexter Jakes Sr., one of the world’s most revered masterminds, leverages his pioneering vision and instinct to serve others in areas extending beyond the church. In order to help lead people to their destiny, you have to meet people where they are in life. It is with this earnest approach that Bishop Jakes has been able to reach millions of people from all socioeconomic backgrounds, races, nationalities, and creeds.
 
Faithful Pastor
For more than 40 years, Bishop T.D. Jakes has helped millions of people realize their purpose through his dynamic ministry. Recognized as “America’s Best Preacher” by Time Magazine, as well as “One of the Nation’s Most Influential & Mesmerizing Preachers” by The New York Times, Bishop Jakes remains a charismatic, yet humble man. In 1996, with minimal resources, T.D. Jakes founded The Potter’s House (TPH), a non-denominational, multicultural church and global humanitarian organization, in Dallas, Texas. The church has since expanded to include more than 30,000 members, with more than 50 diverse ministries. While TPH, located in southern Dallas, is the designated home to numerous members, Bishop Jakes has fulfilled the needs of those residing in the northern and western regions of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, as well as out-of-state. TPH campuses are also present in Frisco and Fort Worth, Texas, as well as Denver, Colorado.

Devoted Husband
As a devoted husband to First Lady Serita Jakes, Bishop Jakes eagerly supports his beautiful wife of more than 35 years. Serita Jakes, a best friend, a mother, a grandmother, and a loving wife, is Bishop’s chief advocate as well. Serita and T.D. have managed every business opportunity, as well as personal endeavors with their unwavering faith in God. The power couple has successfully raised five beautiful grown children, including Sarah Jakes, Cora Jakes-Coleman, Thomas Jakes, Jr., Jermaine Jakes, and Jamar Jakes.

The secret to their longevity belies “Hollywood marriage advice”. Through the fortunate and not-so-fortunate times, Serita and T.D. support each other every step of the way. He encourages Serita to pursue her passions in the ministry, as well as her business endeavors. To this end, Serita serves as executive director for The Potter’s House Women’s Ministries, among other roles, serving the domestic violence community. With an adoration of design, Serita Jakes recently launched Serita Jakes Home, a thoughtfully-designed collection of candles and home décor accent pieces. Whether enjoying a long, relaxing walk along the beach or launching a business, T.D. and Serita Jakes support each other with their faith in God, and in each other.

Today's Minister: Pastor Rod Hembree

Rod’s journey with God has been one of unexpected discovery and wonder that has moulded him into a man with a tattered, well-worn and unyielding faith. Despite his long family legacy of inspiring pastors, his journey to faith was not easy. Today Rod finds unending delight in the Bible, but like most of us, he hasn’t always felt that way. As a Pastor’s kid, Rod struggled to connect with God and His Word. But at 14 he read through the Psalms and felt everything shift. Rod felt convicted and asked the Holy Spirit to intervene in His life. Formerly the boy running from the police, Rod became the boy carrying a torn up Bible with him everywhere.

After graduating from college in Arkansas, Rod relocated to Ontario, Canada to work alongside his father and other family members at Kennedy Road Tabernacle (KRT). It...
