Most likely the Jimmy Swaggert Evangelistic Association or some such thing. Passing the torch on to his son Donny at some point.
Donny does not fit the mold of a well educated well spoken cruisematic. The first time I heard him on the radio a few years ago while passing through Arkansas I thought I had found a UPC or maybe even AMF preacher.
He was a bitter, negative sounding screamer. Turned out at the end it was JS's son! Certainly not as well spoken as his father. I think he must have become very bitter over his dad losing so much of the family "business" when he got caught. You can feel that bitterness in his preaching. He was slamming some fellow cruisematic preachers in the sermon I heard in a way I had only heard UPC / Old time pentecostal ones do previously.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
