Unraveling the Reasons Behind Jonathan Lamb's Departure
Why was he fired?
Jonathan was dismissed from the family TV company on November 16th, as per a termination letter he shared with The Dallas Morning News. The letter emphasized the confidentiality agreement he had signed upon joining Daystar, stating that he would be liable under defamation laws if he made "untrue or misleading statements" about the company or its leaders.His mother, Joni Lamb who is also the CEO of Daystar, explained that the decision to terminate him came after a 15-month assessment of his performance and his "refusal to take any measures to meet a detailed performance improvement plan."In a previous interview with The News, Jonathan claimed that Daystar had a "submission culture." He believed he was removed from the network's board and his vice president role in April 2023 and later placed on the performance improvement plan because he refused to sign a non-disclosure agreement.Alleged job performance issues
"Jonathan Lamb is no longer with Daystar Television Network due to his repeated failure to comply with a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) that expired the day before his termination," an emailed statement from Daystar stated.He was put on a performance improvement plan in April of this year and was given charge of the network's cafe, facilities, and distribution departments. "They were using this position as a form of punishment for my refusal to sign the NDA," he said in a previous interview.Both Jonathan and Daystar provided copies of the performance improvement plan he was on before his termination. The plan included six points. The third point pertained to social media: "Refrain from posting comments in a conversation, text or email or on your or Suzy's blogs and social media regarding any of the following without first obtaining the written approval of its content from the CEO or a Trustee: (i) your reassignment, (ii) the existence or contents of this Plan, (iii) decisions or actions taken by Daystar leadership on any topic, (iv) the appearance or non-appearance of you or Suzy on programs or broadcasts of Daystar." Suzy Lamb is Jonathan's wife.The plan's fifth point concerned Joni's marriage. "You have expressed religious objections regarding the marriage of Doug Weiss to CEO Joni Lamb. As you know, Joni is the CEO of Daystar, and their marriage is legally recognized and has been vetted and affirmed as Biblical by credible pastoral counselors."Death in the family
Joni and Marcus Lamb co-founded Daystar in the 1990s. Marcus Lamb served as CEO until his death in November 2021. Joni Lamb married Weiss in 2023 and is currently the president and CEO.Since his termination, Jonathan has "engaged in a smear campaign using false allegations against Daystar and its leadership. Based on a clear and documented pattern, it is evident that this smear campaign is the result of Jonathan not being designated as the future President of Daystar following the untimely death of Daystar's founder, Marcus Lamb," the emailed statement from Daystar said.In her video addressing the company's leadership changes, Joni Lamb said the death of her husband Marcus divided the family. "Jonathan was extremely disappointed that he was not named the future president of Daystar following the death of his father and my husband Marcus Lamb," she said.Jonathan previously told The News that a rift between him and his mother grew because he had religious objections to her marriage to Weiss. The Christian Post reported in May that Weiss filed for divorce from his previous wife, Lisa, two months after Marcus Lamb's death."Jonathan's disappointment in not getting his way only deepened when I married Dr. Doug Weiss, who has been such a blessing to me, the rest of my family and Daystar," Joni Lamb said in the video.Joni Lamb's video ended with an affirmation of her religious convictions. "We stand firm in our faith, knowing that God is with us, and his purpose for Daystar is far greater than any present challenge we may be facing," she said.Daystar claims to have over 100 television stations in the U.S. and is available on "nearly every major cable and satellite provider across the globe." The network is registered as a church and adheres to a statement of faith that is posted on its website. It airs shows by major evangelical pastors including Kenneth Copeland and Joel Osteen.Adrian Ashford covers faith and religion in North Texas for The Dallas Morning News through a partnership with Report for America.Uncover the Lives of Premier League Wives and Girlfriends
