During lunch with Jerry Fallwell (around 36:30), the Bakker's daughter is awake, then asleep and then awake again and her hat's positioning changes several ways in a matter of seconds.

When their son was born and Tammy admitted to her affair the President was Ford not Reagan. So Jim did not receive a letter from President Reagan at that time.

In the scene following the confrontation between Tammy, Jim and Gary after giving birth to her son, Jay, Tammy is seen drinking a Diet Coke while taking her Ativan prescription. This would be impossible, since Diet Coke was introduced in the U.S. market in August 1982, nearly seven years after Jay's birth in December 1975.

There is no Boron Federal Prison and never was. There was a Boron Federal Prison Camp, but it was in Boron, not San Bernardino and it had no walls or even a fence around it. Jim Bakker didn't do his time there though. He started his sentence in Rochester, MN and end it in Jesup, GA after a sentence reduction.

To add to the contributor about how Tammy Faye could not have washed her Ativan down with Diet Coke, in fact, she was a huge TaB drinker, also a Coca-Cola product, but predating Diet Coke.

In 1960 at North Central Bible College, a young Jim Bakker delivers his Bible sermon to his professor and students. He claims to quote "John 3:2." Then he quotes or reads: "Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers." However, the proper Bible citation that he reads is III John 2, or 3rd Epistle of John, verse 2. So Jim cited the Gospel of John, but reads from the 3rd Epistle of John, which are completely different parts of the New Testament.

During the Nightline Interview with Ted Koppel, it is obvious that when viewed from behind the image of Koppel is frozen and only begins to move when he responds.

In a scene set in North Carolina in 1985, Tammy suggests taking her daughter and mother to Maggiano's for dinner. However, that restaurant chain was not founded until 1991 and did not open its first restaurant outside Illinois until 1994.

Tammy Faye's mother is wearing glasses with anti-reflective coating, which didn't exist until the 1980's.
