In a moment filled with reflection and vision, Bishop T.D Jakes shared that his daughter, Sarah Jakes Roberts, along with her husband, Touré Roberts, will step into church leadership starting this July. The announcement comes just months after Bishop Jakes experienced a serious health scare, a massive heart attack that doctors later told him could have been fatal if he had arrived at the hospital just five minutes later.

Despite stepping down from daily pastoral duties, Bishop Jakes will remain closely connected to the ministry. He will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board and as a spiritual overseer, guiding while also expanding his broader ministry work, including the launch of a new podcast with iHeartMedia.

Founded in 1996, The Potter’s House has grown to a global movement, with over 30,000 members across multiple campuses in Dallas, Fort Worth, and Denver. Passing the mantle to the next generation signals not just a change in leadership, but a multiplying of the church’s impact. “Leadership is not static; it is dynamic,” Bishop Jakes shared. “It demands the courage to evolve.”

The congregation responded with a mix of gratitude and hope, grateful for Bishop Jakes’ decades of faithfulness, and hopeful for the future under Sarah and Touré’s leadership. As the legacy continues, Bishop Jakes’ life and ministry remain a powerful reminder that true leadership is about preparing others to carry the vision even further.

As one chapter closes, another begins, and through it all, the impact of Bishop T.D. Jakes’ ministry continues to echo across generations.

The 29-year-old daughter of popular pastor T.D. Jakes, who is also a wife and mom, recently caused quite a stir on Instagram when she posted the photo below.

She captioned the photo as follows:

Yeah, I know…. It’s different. It’s unexpected. It’s something that you would never expect and that’s the whole point. When’s the last time you did something for the first time? When is the last time you broke out of your comfort zone and dared to charter into the realm of the unknown?  When’s the last time you stretched your faith by forcing yourself to face your fears?  For reasons I have yet to fully understand I decided to stretch my potential this year. Podcasting, online store, conference, 2 campuses, 1 amazing husband, 6 kids, 15 speaking dates, and there’s still more I have in my heart to do. Things I’ve never done before…Things I am severely unqualified for, but I’d rather walk on water than stay in the boat. Do something that forces you to dig deep within and uncover another dimension of who you are.

After she posted the photo, lots of her followers criticized her choice of clothing, calling it “wordly” and “ungodly.” Apparently, she also got lots of DMs from people who disapproved of her clothing choice.

She subsequently addressed the criticism, stating that the whole point of posting the photo was to do something people would deem as “unexpected” coming from someone like her, as she was trying to drive home a point – to challenge people to do the unexpected and get out of their comfort zones, as illustrated in the photo caption. She also stated that she has always had a passion for fashion, and as a result, she’s never afraid to take chances with her style.

So guys, what do you think of Sarah’s outfit? I personally see nothing wrong with it. It’s not like she is showing excess skin or wearing anything provocative. The fact that she’s a Christian woman, a preacher, and the wife of a preacher doesn’t mean she should walk around looking like a nun.
