Jay Bakker, son of Jim and Tammy Faye, found life hard to live after his parents' very public scandals – the fraud, the affair, the fall of the PTL ministry. "Lots of booze got me through it for a little while," he says. "But I really survived through seeking out what the truth was." Like his parents, he found the truth in the Bible, and now heads up the Revolution Church, his non-denominational parish in Atlanta, designed to show that churches today can be hip and welcoming. Bakker himself is hip and welcoming, with his tattoos, piercings, and upbeat down-to-earth personality.One Punk Under God is WOW's 6-part candid, behind-the-pulpit look at the preacher's scene airing on the Sundance Channel beginning December 13. Jim Bakker, who has a ministry in North Carolina, and Tammy Faye, who's dealing with inoperable lung cancer, appear in the series. (USA Today)
