Friends urge prayer for Dennis Prager amid hospitalization for 'serious' back injury
Christian Post ^ | November 14, 2024 | Jon Brown

Friends of conservative author and radio host Dennis Prager urged prayer and poured out encouragement after the PragerU founder was hospitalized this week following a fall that left him seriously injured.

"On Tuesday morning, PragerU founder and our dear friend, Dennis Prager, suffered a serious back injury following a fall," the X account of PragerU tweeted. "He's resting in a local Los Angeles hospital as doctors assess treatment options. We will keep you informed of his condition. In the meantime, Dennis welcomes the healing power of your prayers."

Prager, 76, has been a nationally syndicated radio host since 1999.

Prager, who is Jewish, has penned 11 books, including a multi-volume biblical commentary on the Pentateuch called The Rational Bible.

In 2009, Prager founded Prager University or PragerU, which appealed to young people with five-minute videos on various topics from a conservative perspective.

Fellow Salem Media radio host Mark Davis filled in for Prager on his Wednesday radio show and urged listeners to pray for Prager's "quick recovery."

Many prominent conservative figures took to X to offer their support for Prager.

"I just heard from Mrs. Prager," Social Media Freedom Foundation founder Jason Fyk tweeted Wednesday. "[Prager's] condition is far worse than I thought. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Prager family, friends and loved ones."

An SCI is serious, and life-altering, but rarely life-threatening these days. At 76, it’s a tough reality to face up to. Mine was at 61, and it was no walk in the park (pun intended), but I adapted, because what other choice was there? None. It’s called ‘radical acceptance”.

Agree. He is a sincere man who says what he honestly thinks regardless of approval by others. A passionate defender of freedoms.

Prayers up.

I see by a couple of comments on the article that even The Christian Post has its scumbag trolls.

I tripped and fell on Monday in our driveway while retrieving the mail . Sections of the driveway are seperated by an inch and a half filled in by grass but some of the grass had browned do the wife removed them with plans to remove all the grass and fill it in with tiny stones but hadn’t got round to it yet . Anyway , I fell straight down ,breaking my glasses the right side of which dug into my forehead area just right of my eyebrow spewing lots of blood . Right knee scraped badly and I began feeling numbness in my head the day after . Had a CT scan and they found a spot of blood on the opposite side of where I hit . Doc said it is probbaly no biggie but to come back in a month for another CT . Apparently when the head is hit like mine was the brain moves inside the head and when if did that might be why the blood is there . Praying . Otherwise aches and pains here and there but no back problems . Oh - I’m 72 .

Prayers for YOU. That was a nasty fall. I have a split level home with 4 flights of stairs & worry a lot about falling. These things happen when we least expect it, & are maybe not being very careful.

His fireside chats are very enjoyable, as well as most of the content on PragerU. And he MUST be able to finish his Rational Bible series.

Who are most likely paid by Schwartz Gyorgy, the world enslavement forum, the demonrat party, or the Chinese communist party, take your pick.
