The Eyes of Tammy Faye | Bonus Episode

This week Jessica Chastain won Academy Award for best actress in a leading role for her portrayal of Tammy Faye Bakker in The Eyes of Tammy Faye movie  that came out in theaters on September 17, 2021. The film, based on a 2000 documentary by the same name, follows the controversial and scandalous lives of Tammy Faye Bakker and her husband Jim, through the rise and fall of their wildly successful TV ministry based out of Charlotte, NC. A couple of friends and I, including one who played as an extra in the film, went and saw it the night it came out.  In this bonus episode you'll hear from guests Jimmy Humphrey (of Jimmy's Table podcast),  Derek Henson, and me-- three friends, from Pentecostal backgrounds, sit down to discuss our thoughts and reflections on the movie, the greater impact of the Bakker's PTL ministry, and what their story might mean to the modern Evangelical church in America. *Audio is from recorded video chat; live and unedited. *
