The Rev. Frank White of Young Missionary EYE ON GOSPEL Bishop T.D. Jakes Cuts A Record Deal: “From the Million Man March on down, women are starting to feel like when are you going to do something for us. They’ve seen “Promise Keepers,” they’ve seen “Manpower,” but this will be the first time that we’ve done a mega-conference for women and I think the nation is ready for it.” The words are those of Bishop T.D. Jakes - who as the most sought-after African- American preacher on the nation’s evangelistic circuit - is just the man to do it. His highly acclaimed book, “Woman, Thou Art Loosed,” has appeared at the top of the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association’s best sellers list since 1994. And so, September 5-7, up to 50,000 women are expected to descend upon the New Orleans Superdome for the “Woman Thou Art Loosed Homecoming Conference,” that will be recorded live for release on Integrity Records. It is the first of two record ings Jakes has committed to do with the Mobile, Ala.,- based Christian record label over the next two years. Acting as worship leader and psalmist, he’ll host an all-star group of soloists, instrumen talists and a 500-voice mass choir. Jakes views the recording - which will include short spo ken word briefs - as neither a business or career decision. Notes Jakes, “it is a ministry opportunity to reach a facet of the body who would not pick up a book and maybe wouldn’t watch Christian television, but loves Christian music; and when they experience that, I will be able to reach more peo ple than I’ve ever reached before. “I’ve never crossed over into the secular community at the expense of changing my mes sage, but I’ve made some peo ple uncomfortable because I was not a guy who danced to the beat of another drummer. I’ve always set the pace that I’ve felt God had for me and I’m not afraid to be different. I was probably the first male to climb up on stage and minis ter to thousands upon thou sands of women and acknowl edge that they have a legiti mate reason to be wounded.” Fact is “the Woman, Thou Art Loosed” conference was born out of Sunday School class established in 1992 which was meant to encour age the women in his local church who were going through something. Just 40 women came to that first meeting. “Every time I taught it,” Jakes recounts, “the crowds doubled and tripled until it just dominated every thing we were doing. We began to move it across the country. Then came the tapes and book. But I was as shocked as anybody that it took off like it did.” 'ITie expe rience with the Manpower conference has been similar. The first drew more than 2,500 men in Detroit. More than 20,000 journeyed to Atlanta to take part last October and he expects 30,000 in Los Angeles in November. Fact is, since the early ‘90s, T.D. (Thomas David) Jakes has not had any trouble get ting noticed. His 12 books are carried in most U.S. chains. Then there’s his BET broad casts, numerous TBN appear ances, and the over one dozen ministry conferences he holds across the nation, including his annual “Back To The Bible” Conference. That doesn’t include the weekly speaking engagements. Last week, he addressed more than 35,000 gathered at the New Orleans Superdome for the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship. With all this husband and father of five has going, his biggest challenge remains bal ancing a busy schedule with quality family time. This week’s scripture: “Open rebuke is better than secret love, ” Proverbs 27:5 Fax your news to us at 376-0496 Temple in Raleigh is the fea tured speaker for the week.
