Gospel rapper Kanye West is currently on his Sunday Service tour, at times teaming up with acclaimed pastor Joel Osteen. This past week, he led a particularly emotional performance at a packed youth conference in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. At the conference, West recalled his journey to finding God again and claims his faith helped save him in dark times, according to Fox News.
West took the stage alongside his Sunday Service choir to Strength to Stand Conference where there were more than 12,000 college students in attendance. He performed songs from his recent Gospel rap album “Jesus is King” and provided his own personal faith testimony in between the songs. He got candid about how much his life has changed since he focused his life upon Jesus Christ and how he believes his faith was the guiding force that allowed him to turn his life around.
“I believe Jesus died for my sins. There was a time when the devil had me,” he said.
