Curvine Brewington, a Louisiana pastor, praises rapper Kanye West after his last-minute “Sunday Service,” resulted in “over 1,000” people raising their hands to commit their lives to Christ. The pastor went so far as to call what happened a “new wave of revival.”
Fox News reported that over the past few months, West has been traveling around the country conducting his “Sunday Service,” which is not always held on a Sunday. Brewington, a pastor at Crossroads Church in Lafayette, attended Friday’s service with his wife at Bethany Church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
“Tonight, worship was lifted, the name of Christ was exalted, the Word of God was preached, a multitude prayed together, the Gospel was clearly proclaimed, and an opportunity to respond was given,” Brewington wrote in an Instagram post. “In a crowd of 6,000, people from all walks of life, all ages, and all races, I witnessed over 1,000 people respond to The Gospel by raising their hands to accept Jesus as their Lord & Savior!”

Brewington went on to quote part of Isaiah 43:19 and 1 Corinthians 1:27, writing, “Say what you want, & think what you want…. But trust me when I tell you – The Spirit of the Living God was indeed present. I danced, wept, stood in awe of God’s redemptive work, & can honestly say that tonight I witnessed a new wave of REVIVAL first hand.”
West’s recently released Christian “Jesus Is King,” is his ninth consecutive No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 Chart. West has committed himself this year to spreading the word of God to his fans in a way that few celebrities ever do.

“Now that I’m in service to Christ, my job is to spread the gospel, to let people know what Jesus has done for me,” West said last month, according to USA Today. “I’ve spread a lot of things. There was a time I was letting you know what high fashion had done for me, I was letting you know what the Hennessey had done for me, but now I’m letting you know what Jesus has done for me, and in that I’m no longer a slave, I’m a son now, a son of God. I’m free.”
We applaud West for using his platform to promote Christianity and spread the word of Christ. If only more celebrities would do the same thing!
