USA: Justin Bieber ‘is studying to become a church minister’
JUSTIN Bieber is studying to become a church minister, it is reported.
The pop idol is said to be planning the move after the pastor where he worships was kicked out in a sex scandal.
Bieber’s former mentor Carl Lentz, 42, left Hillsong Church in LA amid accusations of affairs.
The hitmaker, 26, has credited the celeb-packed religious community with helping save him from his “dark” period of drugs and meltdowns.
A source told OK! magazine: “Justin has never been happier or healthier and says he owes it to the church.
“He doesn’t want to give up his music career, but feels there’s a bigger calling for him.”
Bieber has been active in the church for years and has performed in the choir, watched by wife Hailey, 24.
