Whitney Houston's faith. In the music
business, people can become lost and go

2
00:00:11.199 --> 00:00:17.600
in the wrong direction. My mom
used to tell me God didn't put them

3
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:22.719
in that spotlight. They put themselves
in there, or they forget God.

4
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:31.600
I agree, but we don't know
what's in a person's heart. Whitney knew

5
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:38.200
she needed God. She was always
singing the Gospel. She was brought up

6
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:45.280
in church and she never stopped going
to church. Like any other human being,

7
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:54.920
she had some troubles. Whatever was
troubling Whitney. I believe that helped

8
00:00:54.960 --> 00:01:03.039
her to be a great singer too. She sang with feeling. I've seen

9
00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:08.560
a video of Whitney in church with
Kim Borell. Kim said Whitney wanted to

10
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:18.480
preach and was speaking in tongs.
That means Whitney had other gifts. Maybe

11
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:25.959
it wasn't meant for Whitney Houston to
reach people the Hollywood way. The Hollywood

12
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:34.760
way is about fame and publicity,
selling sex. Whitney needed to be around

13
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:42.560
other Christians, and in that Hollywood
world it can be very lonely. The

14
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:53.400
Kingdom of God is not of this
world. Today's topic Whitney Houston's faith.
