Jimmy Swaggart, a pioneering televangelist known for his widespread TV ministry, passed away at age 90 in Louisiana after a two-week hospitalization following cardiac arrest. His ministry reached a massive audience in the 1970s and 80s, but his career was later tarnished by a sex scandal in 1988. Despite the controversy, Swaggart remained a prominent figure in Pentecostal Christianity, leaving behind a legacy marked by both significant reach and considerable controversy.
