In partnership with True Entertainment, the production company for Bravo's "Real Housewives of Atlanta," the show will reveal the everyday lives of women with leadership roles in church, covering how they handle the "politics" of the church, counseling congregants in trouble or need, and the hiring and firing of staff.

As these women handle various day-to-day tasks in their positions, including the task of preaching for some, the show seeks to bring attention to women in religious communities that some feel is usually geared toward men.
