  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

The absence of Jonathan Lamb from the speaker lineup at his mother’s memorial service highlighted the family tensions and controversies that plagued Joni Lamb and Daystar Television Network in the years before her death.

Family members, ministry leaders and supporters gathered Monday at Gateway Church to honor the life and legacy of the longtime Christian broadcaster, who died May 7 at age 65after serious health complications worsened by a recent back injury.

While several family members and high-profile figures delivered tributes during the memorial, Jonathan Lamb, Joni Lamb’s eldest son and former Daystar executive, did not speak.

According to The Roys Report, Jonathan and his wife, Suzy Lamb, were seated in the front row away from the rest of the family and largely out of camera view.

The omission came amid a years-long public rift within the Lamb family that intensified after the death of Marcus Lamb in 2021.
