Jimmy Lee Swaggart is an American Pentecostal pastor, teacher, musician, author, and televangelist. He has preached to crowds around the world through his weekly telecast. According to the official website for Jimmy Swaggart Ministries, his 1980s telecast was transmitted to over 3,000 stations and cable systems each week. Sexual scandals in the late 1980s and early 1990s led the Assemblies of God to defrock him, and to Swaggart temporarily stepping down as the head of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries. Swaggart's television ministry, which began in 1975, continues airing in the US and internationally. The weekly Jimmy Swaggart Telecast and A Study in the Word programs are broadcast throughout the US and on 78 channels in 104 other countries, and over the Internet.
