Conservative thought leader Dennis Prager’s friends and family are asking for prayer after he suffered a serious accident earlier this week.

“On Tuesday morning, PragerU founder and our dear friend, Dennis Prager, suffered a serious back injury following a fall,” his official PragerU account posted on the social media platform X.

“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, who is Jewish, is a nationally syndicated radio host and author of 11 books including “The Rational Bible,” a commentary on the Pentateuch, according to the Christian Post.

He also is the founder of PragerU, a website that features 5-minute videos that explain economics, political science, race, culture and other topics from a conservative viewpoint.

News of his accident prompted an outpouring of concern.

“Please keep patriot @DennisPrager in [your] prayers,” Arizona’s Kari Lake wrote.

“His @prageru 5-minute-videos helped me raise my kids conservative.

“Dennis, heal-up, quickly!”
