Scandals At The Altar: 10 Black Church Leaders Who’ve Incited Controversy and Doubt
Hezekiah Walker
Known to many as the “Hip Hop Pastor”, Bishop Hezekiah Walker hosts Diddy and Lil’ Kim in his church and ministers with a type of music that rap artists embrace. But a few years ago, Bishop Walker had more than his musical taste questioned. His marriage to wife Monique dissolved and a rumor emerged claiming he was homosexual. The Grammy award winning gospel artist vehemently denied the allegations releasing a statement which read, “the enemy seeks to steal, kill and destroy. Character assassination is one of the oldest weapons.” Shortly thereafter, the Bishop received a public apology from the source.
