Detroit's own Sheard family; Bishop J. Drew, Karen Clark, Kierra, and J Drew II, have a new docu-series in the works for BET. In a recent interview, Kierra was quick to let everyone know that this is more a docu-series that a reality show, so it's "not going to be trashy!" Instead, she says, it's an opportunity for the world to see a faith-based family with married parents and siblings that get along well. The series premieres April 7th, 2013, on BET.
