Joni Lamb, a prominent figure in Christian broadcasting and co-founder of the Daystar Television Network, died on May 7, 2026, at the age of 65. Her death was attributed to serious health issues, worsened by a recent back injury. Throughout her career, Lamb built a substantial net worth estimated at $40 million, primarily from her leadership at Daystar, book sales, and a significant real estate portfolio valued at about $12 million. She authored several books, including “Surrender All” and “Heart for the World,” which contributed to her earnings. Joni married Marcus Lamb in 1982, and together they expanded Daystar into a major faith-based media outlet. After Marcus’s passing in 2021, she remarried Dr. Doug Weiss in 2023. Joni is survived by three children: Jonathan, Rachel, and Rebecca, who are involved in the family legacy within Christian media.
