The PTL Club was a Christian television program that aired from 1974 to 1989. It was created by Jim Bakker and Tammy Faye Bakker and was known for its lively format, featuring music, interviews, and discussions about faith. The show was broadcast from the Heritage USA theme park in South Carolina, which the Bakkers developed as a Christian resort. The PTL Club gained a large following and became a significant part of the televangelism movement during the 1980s. However, it faced controversy and legal issues, leading to the downfall of the Bakkers and the eventual closure of Heritage USA.
