The Tulsa Originated man initially started his career as the pastor for Higher Dimensions Evangelistic Center Incorporated, which was later named as the Higher Family Church. He had founded the church in 1981. Carlton was ordained in the Church of Gods in Christ.
Initially, along with Dr. Frederick K. C. Price, Carlton was one of the only two African-American ministers to anchor a faith-based show that was able to reach millions of viewers on a weekly basis. Also, he was one of the first black ministers to hold major conferences.
Unlike several Pastors, Pearson had a very different approach to the whole belief system. He believes in universal reconciliation. And later, Joint-College declared him as a heretic.
In November 2006, Pearson was accepted into the United Church of Christ as a minister. Later, on 7th September 2008, the renamed church of New Dimensions Worship Centre (June of 2008) was absorbed by the ALL Souls Unitarian Church.
Furthermore, in May 2009, he was appointed as the interim of the Christ Universal Temple. However, it was stated that he left the post on January 3rd, 2011.

Media
Pearson was quite famous in the media, and that was because of his new thoughts. The media first covered his life’s story on the topic of heresy.
Nevertheless, one of his most noteworthy statement had caused a dispute amongst many. In 2010 September, Pearson on a show of CNN anchored by Kyra Phillips was discussing a very sensitive issue regarding gay rumors. During that show, he stated controversial stuff.
In addition to having stopped believing the concept of hell, he has a rather weird approach toward homosexuality and homosexuals. In the interview with CNN, to protect the image of another fellow bishop, Eddie Long, he made a statement that had caused a rather uproaring amongst the people.
Though Long had been accused of acts of sexual misconduct, Pearson’s support towards him is rather striking and disturbing.
