Bishop T.D. Jakes to Partner With Amazon For Streaming Content
By Movieguide® Contributor
Bishop T.D. Jakes has just announced his new partnership with Amazon, with a dedicated space on the streaming service for his content.
The T.D. Jakes FAST Channel will be available for customers in the U.S. to stream on the Freevee app and Prime Video in early 2023. The channel will also be available in the UK and Germany.
Users will be able to view recordings of his sermons and content about topics like emotional wellbeing and business.
“The launch of our channel with Amazon Freevee signals a major step forward in providing a protected and trusted space for audiences’ emotional and spiritual fortitude,” Jakes shared. “As Amazon continues to innovate and offer audiences meaningful content, I’m proud to illustrate to the world how ministry and philanthropy can be done in an ever-evolving culture.”
He continued, “Though what we’ve been able to achieve with this launch is unprecedented, our mission to positively affect lives by reducing limitations on how people can be ministered to remains our North Star. I look forward to taking more big, meaningful leaps with Amazon.”
Jakes previously found success producing MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN, which was nominated for a Movieguide® Epiphany Prize and selected as the Best Movie for Families, and HEAVEN IS FOR REAL.
A portion of Movieguide®’s review of MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN reads:
MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN is a heartrending, faith-affirming drama about the true story of a 12-year-old girl, Anna Beam, suffering from a very serious medical disorder. Anna’s mother, Christy, recognizes her daughter has something serious wrong with her, but most doctors are confused by her disorder and treat her for other diseases. Finally, Anna’s parents find an expert in Boston, but his findings don’t bring much hope. In fact, things seem to be going from bad to worse. Anna convinces the doctor to let her return home, but an unexpected accident leaves Anna at death’s door.
MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN is a well-orchestrated, emotionally powerful movie, with strong jeopardy. The cast does a beautiful job adding humor and warmth to what could have been a hackneyed story. Opposition from some church members and an antagonistic atheist reporter add realism to the movie, which is based on a true story. MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN is an uplifting postcard from God. It may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it tells a poignant, cinematic story of faith in Christ. MOVIEGUIDE® commends the filmmakers behind MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN.
