Popular Canadian singer, Justin Bieber has denied reports that he is studying to become a pastor at Hillsong church in New York City.
The singer also made it known that he is not a member of the Australia-based church.
A media outlet had reported that the music star was studying to become a minister of the church in the wake of Carl Lentz‘s sacking.
Lentz was dismissed in November 2020 for “moral failures.” The celebrity preacher was said to have confessed to cheating on his wife.
A source had told OK! magazine that the singer hopes to help lead Hillsong after Lentz dismissal.
“Justin doesn’t plan to give up his music career, but he feels there’s a bigger calling out there for him,” the source said.
Debunking the claims, the 26-year-old singer took to his Instagram story on Monday to state that he is a member of ChurchHome, not Hillsong church.
“And btw Hillsong is not my church… For clarity I am a part of Churchome,” he wrote.
Bieber went on to explain in another post that: “Church is not a place. We are the church. We don’t need a building to connect with God. God is with us wherever we are.”
