Black Church News: Bishop T. D. Jakes Confront Fatherless Households with Oprah Winfrey at MegaFest


We think it was very important for Bishop T. D. Jakes to include Oprah's lifeclass and discuss fatherless households.  That's one of the old issues that a lot of black pastors have excluded from their sermons, especially since many black churches are multicultural these days.   However, we know it is a possibility the issues of fatherless households is irrelevant among the elite among most clergy members of mega ministries.  

According to ChristianPost.com, Oprah invited Jakes back to her lifeclass to talk about the millions of sons and daughters who are growing up without a father in their life, and to share the steps families can take to heal old wounds and restore their fractured relationships. There were many "aha! moments" for the queen of television who surmised that women are incapable of fulfilling the role of a father, regardless of how hard they try or how much they believe that they can.  

Fatherless households is something that may never end unless all fathers and mothers come together and yield the expectations of Jesus Christ. Therefore, we sincerely hope this segment of Bishop Jakes MegaFest will help many fathers return to their responsibilities.
