You will not fall asleep listening to the pulpiteer, Reverend Smith.

I'm hungover as a duck let's go get some grub

Listen to that pulpiteer; he said "God Damn America". He's one hell of a social gospelizer.

He's not a puppeteer, but rather a pulpiteer.

He's off again on the value of investing in sand and glass, a pulpiteer to the end..

The term "pulpiteer" can also refer to one or more of the elders in a church who use their preacher as merely a "figurehead" or "mouthpiece on strings" to deceive their parishioners for their own greedy benefit and/or nefarious goals.
