Father Of Lies is a supernatural thriller about the Bishop Calvin Jacobs (Clifton Powell). As a child, Calvin hustled onlookers as a street preacher, but after the mysterious death of his father, he repented and pursued a legitimate vocation. His natural charisma rocketed him to the status of Bishop of Living Waters Ministry and an international, multi-million dollar phenomenon, with television shows, CDs, magazines, and book to his name. However, when a crooked accountant causes a $30 million debt and Calvin finds himself on the brink of disaster, he reluctantly accepts a deal proposed by his childhood friend to lose the debt via a shady businessman named Luther Heir. Unbeknownst to Calvin, Heir is the head of a supernatural cult looking to take control of Living Waters and amass an army of followers. Meanwhile, two FBI agents are hot on Luther's trail. As the annual revival appraches, havoc ensues as Calvin tries to break off ties with Luther, endangering the lives of his friends and family - and leading to an unforgettable climax.
