Conservative Christian TV network rocked by sexual abuse allegations

The Dallas-area Christian broadcasting empire, which has an estimated yearly revenue of $100 million, was founded in 1993 by Marcus and Joni Lamb.

Marcus Lamb, who opposed pandemic shutdowns and coronavirus vaccines, died from COVID-related complications in late 2021 at age 64. According to Jonathan Lamb, his father had chosen him to eventually head Daystar. But in August 2021, amid family strife, a new succession plan emerged, tapping Joni as the network’s next president.

Now Jonathan Lamb and his wife, Suzy, are speaking out, saying they’ve been wronged. The couple, who once hosted a show on Daystar, allege that Joni Lamb has tried to cover up the sexual abuse of their daughter—her granddaughter—by an unnamed family member.

Joni Lamb indicated she is taking “legal steps” to defend herself. On Nov. 27, Roys posted that she received “a demand for a retraction” of her article about the scandal. Roys also published audio of various parties in the dispute, including marriage expert Jimmy Evans telling Jonathan Lamb to submit to his mother’s God-given authority.

Sounds about “RIGHT”.

Looks a little like Matthew McFadyen crossed with Mark Zuckerberg. Pasty and unwholesome.

Trailer park trash with money and faux Christianity. Never a good mix.

So who is the abuser in this story?

Half of their viewers were probably diddled as kids and just accept it as”God’s will”. These are broken people.

But it was by Christians, so it's good.

I hope Jonathan Lamb is doing well running Waystar RoyCo.

Evangelism in the USA is really more christo-fascism than actual Christianity, so we don’t even need to bother discussing the rank hypocrisy of these creatures.

They’re the Pharisees Christ loathed so much, and they’re proud of it. If. Christ were alive and ministering today, they’d call him a woke socialist and far left lunatic.

Oh honey, if Christ came back, they'd crucify him all over again (and completely miss the symbolism, but that goes without saying).

Our nation's SVUs have never been busier, thanks to the widespread depravity within the "family values" party.

Grand Old Perverts.

"Rocked"? Sounds like business as usual.

Gonna go out on a limb and say the molester probably wasn't a drag queen

Just wanted to add that when perverts like the leader of the clan/Founder & CEO/Pervert Grandpa dies, no one misses them.

They ALL loathed the prick, & are left fighting each other for the cash & assets he left behind.

Even the wife who manipulated him to leave her holding the bag couldn’t stand the ol’ fucker.

Ironic.

More like poetic justice, r18.

True R19. It's impossible not to smirk slightly at the irony.

It’s not even about God. It’s about social control and distracting people by turning them into obedient martyrs.

The journalist who wrote this is "Roys." Close enough.

I always wonder if people like this really believe in God or Jesus Christ's existence.

I didn’t even know Daystar was still around.
