Ministerial and business visionary, entrepreneurial trailblazer and altruistic philanthropist, Thomas D. Jakes, Sr., began fulfilling his call to the ministry in 1979 when he founded Greater Emmanuel Temple of Faith. It was a small beginning, in a small West Virginia church, pastoring a small congregation 10-members strong.
More than 25 years later, he pastors what Christianity Today calls "one of America's fastest growing mega-churches."
Jakes lives in Dallas with his wife Serita and their five children.
