In this episode of Bad Pastors, we head to Brooklyn to meet Lamor Whitehead — the self-styled “Bling Bishop” who turned the pulpit into a platform, the platform into a brand, and the brand into a federal indictment. When faith meets flash and the side hustle starts looking holier than the gospel, what happens next isn’t just a scandal — it’s a sermon illustration.
We’ll unpack how good intentions can drift into deception, why pastors should never monetize trust, and what it looks like to stay faithful in a culture obsessed with the grind. Spoiler: shepherds don’t fleece the flock — they feed it.
