Sherri Shepherd has heard the voice of God, and it sounded familiar.

"It's so funny — earlier in my career, I heard it all the time, God, and I would say he sounded like Barry White," the talk show hostess revealed on Tuesday's episode of *The Jamie Kern Lima Show*.

Shepherd told Lima that she first heard God when she was going through an intense frozen yogurt phase. "I was eating this one particular, Pinkberry, which Niecy Nash introduced me to. I blame her to this day. Because I'm a type 2 diabetic, I can't have that much sugar, and it was a lot of sugar, and I can't eat sugar."

The former *View *cohost and current *Sherri *emcee said she "heard a voice as clear as day. It went, 'No more Pinkberry.' When I tell you, that voice scared me. I was like, 'Who is this?'"

Shepherd told Lima that she heard the voice "audibly," but later clarified that it's "something inside going, 'That's enough.'"

"I didn't do it for four years. It had to be about four years," Shepherd continued, back on the thread of her froyo obsession. "That voice scared me so bad. But what it was, was just like, 'You're going to die if you keep taking as much sugar as you are taking.'"

Shepherd has been candid for years about her Christian faith, and even about previous experiences hearing the voice of God.

In 2018, Shepherd, who grew up in a strictly religious Jehovah's Witness household, said she once ignored her instincts to depart as a cohost of *The View*, but once she began eyeing an exit for real in 2014, "I heard God's voice say, 'I told you it was time to go.'"

But she doesn't weigh all spiritual messages equally. On the Sept. 24 episode of her daytime talk show *Sherri*, Shepherd spoke out about a recent TikTok craze that convinced people around the world that the Rapture was coming.

"I have been through this before. I used to be in a religion that told me that the rapture was coming," Shepherd said, recalling a period in which she threw bills away, began to relinquish her worldly possessions, and even landed in jail, only for nothing to transpire. "I went to jail for eight days and because I fell for the Rapture, I became a hardened criminal." **
