Maybe when you're with the right person, you just know really quickly. Maybe that whole super-fast \u003ca href=\"https://www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/entertainment/a20979533/ariana-grande-and-pete-davidson-a-timeline-of-their-relationship/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ariana Grande/ Pete Davidson thing\u003c/a> proved infectious. Or maybe God actually did have a direct influence, via the medium of \u003ca href=\"https://hillsong.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hillsong Church.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's exactly one year since Bieber memorably abandoned his 2017 tour two weeks early because, \u003ca href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2017/07/25/justin-bieber-canceled-tour-dedicated-religion-hillsong-church/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">according to TMZ,\u003c/a> he was \"rededicat[ing] his life to Christ.\" Around that time, he appeared in multiple photos \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/pop/93845/bored-sick-gay-god-why-did-justin-bieber-cancel-his-tour\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cozying up to Carl Lentz\u003c/a>, a Hillsong pastor, and Judah Smith, a pastor from City Church.

Baldwin—whose father \u003ca href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2013/10/18/stephen-baldwin-says-faith-cost-him-roles-compares-him-and-alec-to-cain-and.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stephen is a born-again Christian\u003c/a>—is, like her fiancé, tight with both Hillsong and City Church.

So I just kind of know all of them.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If you look at the wording of their engagement announcements, Baldwin and Bieber's mutual faith in God is transparent. In his, \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BlBvw2_jBKp/?hl=en&taken-by=justinbieber\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bieber said\u003c/a>: \"I promise to lead our family with honor and integrity letting Jesus through his Holy Spirit guide us in everything we do and every decision we make … Gods timing really is literally perfect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/haileybaldwin/status/1016452160459067393\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Baldwin tweeted\u003c/a>: \"Not sure what I did in life to deserve such happiness but I am so utterly grateful to God for giving me such an incredible person to share my life with!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some reports suggest that Bieber and Baldwin (Jailey? Baldber?) will be taking a five-week \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5939715/Justin-Bieber-Hailey-Baldwin-Hillsong-pre-marriage-course.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\"pre-marriage course\u003c/a> run by [Hillsong] on conflict resolution, managing their finances, being intimate” and “effective communication.” \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5939715/Justin-Bieber-Hailey-Baldwin-Hillsong-pre-marriage-course.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>The Daily Mail\u003c/em> has claimed\u003c/a> a source told the paper that: \"The marriage course is something which is encouraged and in some cases demanded by Hillsong pastors before they will marry you.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last few years, Hillsong has gotten a reputation as the religious organization of choice for today's biggest celebrities. Attendance from the likes of Chris Pratt, Selena Gomez (who \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BDWlpPeujBe/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">led worship\u003c/a> there in 2016), Nick Jonas, Vanessa Hudgens (who has described the church as \"epic\"), Kourtney Kardashian, as well as Kendall and Kylie Jenner, has given the church some great PR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Bieber, Chris Pratt has become far more vocal about his faith since joining the congregation and is now \u003ca href=\"https://www.aol.com/article/entertainment/2018/06/29/chris-pratt-smitten-with-girlfriend-katherine-schwarzenegger-report/23471330/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dating fellow church attendee, Katherine Schwarzenegger\u003c/a>. Pratt started attending Hillsong last year and used his acceptance speech, while picking up the Generation Award at June's MTV Awards, to pass on some serious spiritual advice. Pratt intermingled poop jokes and tips for medicating dogs with stern commands including: “You have a soul. Be careful with it”; “God is real. God loves you. God wants the best for you. Believe that”; and “Learn to pray.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EihqXHqxri0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of its very visible celebrity contingent, there is an impression that Hillsong is a Hollywood thing. But the church started life in Australia and has since spread to Argentina, Denmark, France, Spain, Germany, Brazil, Israel, Russia, Bali, the Netherlands, Norway, South Africa, the UK, Portugal, and Sweden -- most of which each have multiple locations. There are also \"Gathering Locations\" in New York, Seattle, Boston, Arizona, and, yes, \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/hillsongsf/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every Hillsong website (there are many) greets the viewer in the same way—\"WELCOME HOME\"—and strives to cater to multiple demographics. It holds child-only \"Kidsong\" services. There are women-only \"Sisterhood\" events.
