Kanye West joined Pastor Joel Osteen on stage at his Lakewood Church on Sunday and said he plans to recruit the best talent in the music industry and release new Christian music every month.
This music is going to come every month. We dropping that heat. Were in the studio. God is strengthening our hands, Kanye West said to the over 17,000 in attendance and the millions watching on livestream.
The devil stole all the good producers, the devil stole all the good musicians, all the good artists, all the good designers, all the good businesspeople, and said youve got to come work for me, West said.
We have writers. We have producers. Were taking all the most fire producers and bring them back to God, the Grammy-winner said to the roar of applause. All the best voices, all the best dancers, all the worship for us to see that its through Christ following the Bible can free us all.
When we bring up the name of Jesus, were told to be quiet. Every time I stand up, I feel that Im standing up and drawing a line in the sand and saying, Im here in service to God,' West continued.
West explained how he came to make Jesus Is King, his ninth consecutive number one album and his first Gospel album.

Watch the video and tell me this guy isn’t for real.
To quote the late, great Larry Norman, and later Geoff Moore and the Distance, “Why Should the Devil Have All The Good Music”?
Would be nice to see someone who knows the lay of the land clue him in so he can choose his associations wisely.
Osteen IS the mold.
He probably knows his name from TV & got in touch with him!
> This Christian loving agnostic asks what is wrong with prosperity? <
Ill field that one. Why should a person follow Christ? I suppose one could make a list of reasons. But to get rich should not be on that list.
Because if you are following Christ to get rich, you are actually not following Christ at all. Instead you are simply following a program you think will make you money.
Thats the way I see it, anyway.
I never said he wasn’t.
I was just asking why you reposted the same link that IS ALREADY IN THE OPENING POST of this thread?
Thanks.
Kanye does not know that stuff about Olsteen. How would he know who to trust as a baby Christian? Olsteen is definitely evil, but
he does not wear a sign saying such.

It could be that Osteen is the only “big name” preacher that is willing to fully embrace West at this time, with the other big time names maybe keeping him at an arms distance. I’ve seen this in ministry before, with on-fire people who have some different way of spreading the Gospel getting the cold shoulder from “respectable” established ministries, so they go where they are welcome. Sometimes later they regret it, but they feel they went where God was leading them at the time.
I’ll say this, when I first became a believer I went to a Lakewood type church in that they fed us pablum. At the time, I could only stomach pablum; I was not a strong enough Christian for ‘meat’. I am now; I read the Bible daily and know the Word well but there is a need for weaker churches but it is incumbent on us to delve deeper into the truth to know who God is.
I read about this in the Babylon Bee.
Trolls? here? On Freepers? Huh!!
“Wolf in sheep clothing or a true voice crying in the wilderness?”
I’ll go with neither. I consider him more of a Dennis Rodman. Gonna do what he feels and isn’t concerned how people feel about that. I believe he is doing something he feels positive about today but he can be wishy-washy. A month from now plans may change.
If Mr West really wants to have a true relationship with the Almighty, he needs to run away from Joel Osteen. He is the latest in the long line of scam artists selling Gods Word as if it were a happy meal.
Kanye needs to watch out, God is dangerous. He will ruin Kanye’s life just to test his faith.
You need to read the other comments, that is if youre truly open to truth as you seem to claim ....
*eye roll* Maybe, but God is not a slot machine where prayers and $$$ are put in and goodies/answers to prayers pop out.
Most Christians talk big and do nothing. He’s doing something which puts him in a different class right off the bat. And he’s doing it in a prison...
He can make a bigger impact on humanity this way than he ever could before. He’s doing what Christians have preached and prayed for for eons.
