Kanye West has performed his music at many of America’s top venues, from Radio City Music Hall to the Coachella festival. This weekend, the rapper stepped onto a stage in Tennessee to perform for a different sort of audience ― young students at an evangelical Christian Bible conference.
West headlined at the Strength To Stand conference with his Sunday Service Choir, sharing his testimony of faith with about 17,000 attendees at the LeConte Center in Pigeon Forge on Sunday, ABC affiliate WATE reports.
“Do you know the good news? Jesus can save a wretch like me,” West told the crowd on Sunday, according to The Christian Post.
The Strength To Stand conference targets students from sixth grade to college who come from various churches in the Great Smoky Mountains region. The evangelistic event is the brainchild of Scott Dawson, a Republican who ran an unsuccessful bid to become Alabama’s governor in 2018.
