Within a week of launch, the podcast reached #6 among all Apple podcasts, #3 industry wide for health and fitness podcasts, and #1 among religion podcasts.

“It’s an honor and privilege to work with a multi-generational icon like Bishop T.D.

Presented by renowned spiritual leader Bishop T.D.

Twice featured on the cover of TIME, Bishop Jakes’ wisdom, care and light shine through his numerous efforts of benevolence, including from within this timely podcast. 

“In a world that often feels chaotic, finding solace and rest is difficult for so many people. In fact, it’s one of the biggest challenges I’ve seen in our world today among countless individuals,” shares Bishop Jakes. “This is more than a podcast; it’s a nightly retreat into the embrace of the Divine — an authentic solution for those struggling to find peace.”
