The insider continued, “He understands brokenness and the need for healing, probably more than most people. He believes in the healing powers of music, but also believes that God can step in and heal people’s brokenness and their issues.”
Kanye "has talked about starting his own church, and what exactly that would be.” “It wouldn’t be the traditional, 3-hymns-and-a-sermon thing. Instead, it would be a way to point people to Jesus through the arts and through a community of people who love and care for each other. He also wants his kids to be raised in faith, and the best way for him to do that is to live out his faith," the insider explained.
The hip-hop artist's Sunday Services have attracted many famous faces. A-listers like the Kardashian-Jenners, Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry and many more have attended the concert.
