Preachers n Sneakers | Ben Kirby | Ep. 124

Ben Kirby, the man behind the viral Instagram account @preachersnsneakers, joins Blake to talk about the cultural phenomenon of mega church pastors and the lives they lead and the shoes they wear. Listen in as they discuss the often nuanced subject of how much money our pastors make and if we're allowed to ask questions about how they use it.   Ben Kirby is the author of Preachers n Sneakers: Authenticity in an Age of For-Profit Faith and (Wannabe) Celebrities, which is out April 27th.   This week's podcast sponsors: Charlotte's Web CBD is the world's most trusted hemp extract that supports a sense of calm for focus as well as management of normal, everyday stresses.
