  3. I so loved Joni and her Jonie Table Talk. I live in Arlington Tx and made calls to join the prayer court. I looked forward to meeting her in person but now I’ll have to meet her on the other side. She was bold, beautiful and strong. Im saddened at her transition praying for her children and grands. May the Lord bless all that loved her with the oil of joy for mourning and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness

  4. We thank Joni for her leadership and teaching of our Heavenly Father. Condolences to her family and friends during this difficult time.

    1. I can’t believe she’s gone…my condolences to the kids and grandkids..to lose both parents just few years apart would be totally unbearable but know that God says he’ll never give us more than we can bear…May God’s Holy Spirit be your comfort

      1. Please read that scripture 1Corinthians 10:13 again, please. Death is an enemy to the Father, He never said “He wouldn’t put more on us, than we could bare”! He doesn’t take us! We come into this world, with a certain amount of time. When that time is up, we make our exit. The scripture says in
        1st Corinthians 10:13- that HE will not suffer(allow)you to be tempted, above that which you are able (to over come), but will with the temptation, also make a way to escape that you may be able to bear it! Our Father is not the one
        giving, or bringing the temptation, or death upon a person. Remember, death is an enemy to the Father, and the last enemy to be destroyed. Peace, and love to all!

  7. Most of all of us are in shock…included myself
    She will be missed..
    Joni was a blessing …to all whom knew her & even those whom didnt ….i.e ..(watching & listening to her on DayStar )

  8. I watched Joni Lamb on Tabletalk for the last 20 years, I’m so grateful for her wonderful way with people and that she never failed to give an opportunity for people to come to know Jesus as Saviour, her upliftment of Israel and raising money and blessing the nation of Israel and the plight of the poor worldwide, you have been such a blessing to us dear Joni Lamb and we pray that legacy goes on with your family, all the way from Pennington South Africa I say thank you

    1. Joni Lamb, you are certainly a servant of our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you for all that you’ve done for day star and for all the partners of Daystar. You and Marcus have ran your course and done the very best you could you have helped me through so many things Joni Lamb God bless her husband, Doug, her children and her grandchildren go rest high on that mountain Joni you will always be missed and loved from Joy K Butts❤️, Tennessee

  9. She must have gotten sick suddenly because she was building a million dollar mansion for herself and Doug . Had she had health issues she wouldn’t have tackled such a large and important endeavor. I hope the family shares what was the sudden illness that attacked her . This is to show respect to the people who supported the ministry financially.
