The Potter's House Church, the nondenominational Christian church in Dallas, Texas led by Jakes where he was preaching Sunday, released a statement on Jakes' official X account saying that he received "immediate medical attention" after the sermon.
"Bishop Jakes is stable and under the care of medical professionals," the statement said.
Jakes appeared in an Instagram post promoting the service before it began at 9 a.m. CT.
The Potter House was founded in 1996 and has over 30,000 members, according to its website.
