The daughter of Bishop T.D. Jakes, Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts, momentarily deserted superficial decorum and look when she snatched off her wig throughout her sermon, electrifying the congregation contained in the Potter’s Home.
“I actually don’t care, as a result of none of that is actually vital,” Jakes Roberts exclaimed earlier than a thunderous ovation throughout the cavernous church in Dallas. “If the wig stays on or not, if the footwear keep on or not, I do know what I’m actually right here for. I perceive that I got here right here to be locked in on one thing, so you can also make the memes and make the movies. One factor I do know for positive is that me and God are locked in on the phrase, and if it is a distraction then let if fall off.”
Unbothered and undeterred, Jakes Roberts calmly fingers her wig to the girl standing on the stage after which continues her sermon.
The congregation leaped to their ft with rousing applause. Many arms shot up in approval whereas some girls might be seen taking off their very own wigs.
The power contained in the famed Potter’s Home was infectious and the surge of electrical energy appeared to energy the remainder of Jakes Roberts’ message.
“God says generally you should see it from the platform so you are able to do it out of your platform. It ain’t at all times gon’ be cute. It ain’t at all times gon’ be fairly, however one factor for positive, it’s gone at all times be God and I don’t care what they are saying about me!” she stated.
On the conclusion of the service, Jakes Roberts posted a video of the viral second of spontaneity.
“Immediately I used to be preaching and I might really feel my wig slipping. My message was extra necessary to me than sustaining my look so I took it off, locked in, and stored preaching,” she wrote partly. “What moved me essentially the most was seeing what number of girls joined me in getting courageously susceptible, actual, and free. Actually, wigs coming off in every single place. I can’t even think about what God goes to do in September after we collect for Girl Evolve.”
