Pop Star Shawn Mendes Says Worship Music Brought Him to Tears: It Felt ‘Like Home’

July 8, 2021 by Staff

(CBN News) The Canadian-born pop singer Shawn Mendes said during a recent interview that listening to Christian worship music brought him to tears and felt “like home.”

Mendes, 22, was referring to songs by the Christian group Maverick City.

“Only in the last two years I’ve realized the real power that music is,” he said during an appearance on the Man Enough podcast. “There’s something so interesting because I grew up kind of more or less atheist. And now, becoming much more spiritual and really being sure there’s a God, or sure there’s a higher thing — the universe or whatever — music was the thing that did that for me.”
