The Christian broadcasting community is mourning the loss of Joni Lamb, who passed away at the age of 65. The news was confirmed Thursday by the Daystar Television Network, which announced that the longtime president and co-founder had “gone home to be with the Lord” after her health condition worsened in recent days.
According to the network, Lamb had been privately dealing with serious health complications for some time. A recent back injury reportedly intensified her condition more than expected, leading to a rapid decline despite ongoing medical care and prayers from supporters around the world. In a heartfelt statement released May 7, Daystar shared that she was now “in the presence of Jesus,” reunited with her late husband, Marcus Lamb.
The network also reflected on her lasting impact, saying Joni’s devotion to faith and ministry helped shape Daystar from its earliest days into one of the world’s largest Christian television networks. While the organization acknowledged the deep grief surrounding her passing, it also reassured viewers and ministry partners that regular programming would continue, with special on-air tributes planned in the days ahead.
Throughout her career, Joni Lamb became one of the most recognized figures in Christian broadcasting. Alongside Marcus Lamb, she co-founded the Daystar Television Network and spent decades expanding its reach to millions of viewers globally. She also hosted programs such as Joni Table Talk and Ministry Now!, where she discussed faith, family, and contemporary issues with guests from across the Christian world.
