"This situation is beyond human strength and strength of character," Swaggart's son, Donnie, said in an update about his father's condition.

Evangelical pastor the Rev. Jimmy Swaggart was in critical condition Monday after being rushed to a hospital Sunday from his Baton Rouge-area home, Jimmy Swaggart Ministries said in a news release. Swaggart went into cardiac arrest shortly after 8 a.m. on Father's Day. Emergency personnel were able to revive his heartbeat, the church said.
