They are one of the leading families in Gospel music and are positively Gospel royalty in Detroit. They are the Sheards, and they’re coming to BET.
The Sheards is a weekly docu-drama following the lives of the Sheard family as they navigate family, friends, and faith in a modern world. Faith. Music. Sex. Family. Love. Relationships. Choices. These are all issues teens and young adults face. But when you’re a pastor’s kid and live in a world where drinking, sex and drugs are all considered abominations, these issues become a lot more powerful.
The Sheards will follow the lives of Kierra “KiKi” Sheard, 24, and her brother J. Drew Sheard, 22. As the kids of First Lady Karen Clark Sheard, one of gospel’s most powerful women, and Bishop J. Drew Sheard, a mega-church pastor in Detroit, they face a responsibility unlike any other. And as they continue to grow and face the ups and downs of becoming adults, they’ll show us the choices they make as they learn life’s lessons, in many cases the hard way.
Watch the premiere of The Sheards immediately following Celebration of Gospel on Sunday, April 7 at 10P/9C before it moves to its regular time on Sundays at 8P/7C
