Convictions.

On the birthday of his wonderful, beloved, iconic late mother, Tammy Faye, Jay Bakker gives a very vulnerable and revealing talk about his personal history as a pastor, advocate, and son.

Jay is true-to-form as his haphazardly human self, guiding the congregation through intimate stories from his past, focusing on the figures who most inspired and affected him and his deepest convictions throughout his unique life, and how sticking to your convictions can be costly. Jay lays out how this all brought him to his current overall perspective--which is, of course, critical and reactive as ever.

Jay gets into some specific and revelatory Bakker family history. If you like this content, you may also enjoy a recent exclusive episode of Revolution Church Podcast, featuring a sermon by Jay's father--Jim Bakker--at Revolution Church, New York, in October 2006:

After Jay's genuine, heart-felt the talk, he and Caleb field questions and comments from the online congregation--which YOU can join on FaceBook Live, every Sunday at 11am PST:

Recorded on Sunday, March 7th 2021, in Seattle, Washington.

Revolution is as DIY as it gets. We used to be a large, well-paid team, with our own nice big building. As addressed today, we do our best not to waiver on our convictions, and in our line of work, that can lead to massive loss of support.

We are now a team of two living in Seattle, trying to get set up during the pandemic. Half of our team (Caleb) has been working for Revolution for over three years now, taking on more responsibilities over time, working solely as an unpaid volunteer. We are fueled by conviction and passion. Unfortunately, we do also exclusively rely on the generous tithing of our congregation and listeners for any form of income. We would love to finally get Caleb on as paid staff, upgrade our audio and video gear, and generally do more for you, and do it better than ever.

    Ever found yourself at the mercy of a car repair bill? I was too... until I learned something powerful. Tag someone who needs to hear this! Last week, my car's engine light turned on, and I was quoted $5,000 for repairs. 😳 But instead of panic, I reached out for help in my community. With the right resources and some guidance, I managed to fix it for just $300! It's incredible how necessity pushes us to learn new skills. I never thought I’d be doing mechanic work, but here I am! The best part? We’re all in this together. Community isn’t just local; it’s global. When we share knowledge, we empower each other. What skills have you learned from necessity?

Here's what I learned:🚗 Tag someone who needs to hear this!Life threw me a curveball when my car went into limp mode right after my kids returned from a great trip to the Grand Canyon. With a check engine light flashing and a hefty repair estimate looming, panic set in. But here's the twist: I reached out for help and got connected with a mechanic who guided me to fix it for just $300 instead! This experience taught me the importance of community support and resourcefulness. Instead of spiraling into debt, I took control and learned something new—how to fix my car. Life isn't always easy, but it’s all about finding solutions and leaning on each other. Have you ever faced a financial scare? What did you do?
