Evangelist, Joni Lamb, who co-founded one of America’s largest Christian networks, Daystar Television Network, died on May 7, 2026. She was 65 at the time of her death. Joni faced serious medical issues, which rapidly deteriorated after a recent back injury heightened her health challenges. However, even amid such a dire condition, Joni was able to spend her last moments before death at her home in Bedford, Texas. Joni’s untimely demise sparked the chatter around her successor. The talks have been fuelled by her son, Jonathan and daughter-in-law, Suzy’s estrangement from her.
