Judah Smith

The creator of PreachersNSneakers is just an “average” person who is facilitating a hefty discussion about church transparency and personal accountability—all through an Instagram account he thinks of as “an opportunity to make people laugh.”

“Chelsea and I developed this practice together in order to guide our members in prayer, bring them inspiration, and help them better connect with God," Pastor Judah Smith says of the new Guided Prayer feature on the Churchome Global app.

This Instagram account is only a few weeks old, but already it's caused Zoe Church pastor Chad Veach to change his account handle and is making some tithing church-goers uncomfortable.

Judah Smith announced Churchome is going global. The announcement has some questioning whether participating in a virtual church can replace real fellowship.

These "celebrity pastors" are friends to the stars, but they're also really good at social media. It's hard to tell which is making a bigger impact on their numbers.

Judah Smith's preaching is described as unique. He shares the questions all potential preachers should ask before getting in the pulpit.

Even while filming a pilot for Amazon or rubbing shoulders with Justin Bieber, pastor Judah Smith stays focused on ministry.
