Pop singer Gwen Stefani has partnered with a Catholic prayer app for the Christmas season and is encouraging her fans to download it and use it with her.
“Imagine showing yourself this video in 1994. Seriously, I think it’s great that Gwen Stefani is a Christian, and is now more vocal about her faith. This is incredibly healthy for American culture,” commentator John William Sherrod wrote in a post on X.
Sherrod also posted a video in which the pop star explains why Christmas is her favorite time of the year.
“It’s the season that we get to celebrate the birth of our Lord,” she said.
Stefani noted that she is partnering with the app Hallow as part of its “25-day prayer challenge leading up to Christmas.”
“Join me and millions of other Christians around the world as we celebrate the truth that God so loved the world that He gave us His only Son,” she said in words echoing the message of John 3:16.
Stefani closed with an invitation to “join me in praying every day. God bless.”
Stefani’s partnership with Hallow got its share of reactions.(snip)
Stefani was raised as a Catholic and has continued in her faith throughout her career, the site reported.
Stefani, 55, recently spoke to People about her 2021 marriage to country star Blake Shelton(snip)
Shelton has commented about the role of religion in Stefani’s life, according to the U.S. Sun.
“She has such a strong faith in God,” he said in 2022. “That’s No. 1 in her life and has been her whole life.”
“She doesn’t beat you over the head with it. She would never do that. That’s her relationship,” he said.

Never heard of her.
A nice Italian-Irish girl.
Am I wrong?
“Shakes up Internet”🙄
No Doubt!
Shakes up the Internet?! Being a Christian is “shaking”?! Announcing her atheism would’ve been cooler.
I heard anti-theists weren’t very happy. I say, more power to Gwen Stefani and if anyone has a problem with her faith, that’s on them.
My thoughts exactly.
We’re all imperfect sinners trying to do better as we know we ought
Gwen Stefani also said about abortion that she “would choose life.”
Sounds pretty punk rock to me! People grow up.
She ain’t no holla back Christian.
I always liked her. Good for her.
I'm OK with it.
I saw No Doubt open up for a reggae act at a bar in college.
After the show, they sat down at a table and sold merch. I remember signing up for their mailing list and for a while, I'd get fliers from them in the mail.
Wish I had saved some of them.
Yes
Why am I constantly surprised that people who were around my age when they became famous are still around my age now?
Our culture is coming back.
🙏
Agree. That’s my favorite song of hers.
I like that song too. (I like a lot of her and No Doubt’s music!) - but yeah don’t really know the verses just appreciate the musicality and “all I want...” chorus. will have to look them up thanks.
AND?!??!
You say that like those poor hard, foul mouthed hussy women don’t count.
HFMHW MATTER!!!
At least to me :)
