Kanye West Brings the Bible to Life By ‘Walking on Water’

Rapper Kanye West made a big splash with his Sunday Service this past weekend in Georgia. West, along with his seven-year-old daughter North and four-year-old son Saint, appeared to ‘walk on water.’ 

His wife, Kim Kardashian, shared the event on her Instagram stories and Twitter. 

Yeezus mimicked Jesus by walking on top of a translucent platform just beneath the surface to appear to walk on water. 

Pastor Joel Osteen gave a speech on top of the water.

“I’m watching these fine men and women singing, looks like they’re walking on the water,” he said according to MailOnline. “And my mind goes back to that time where Jesus invited Peter to walk on the water. I can imagine Peter thought, ‘Jesus, what are you talking about? That’s impossible! I can’t do that.’

“I think we all have that in times in life where we think, ‘God is telling me to do something. I feel it down inside.’ But we don’t feel quantified or have the experience – ‘I can’t sing like them, or I can’t invent like Kanye. That’s for somebody else.” 

West and his choir performed gospel-inspired music for the event, including his track “Ultralight Beam” off the 2016 The Life of Pablo album. 

Several notable guests attended the service including Kim, of course, 2Chainz, La La Anthony, and Monica Denise, among others.
