Ye is said to have converted to Christianity during his career.<ref>Woodson, Robert L. (November 27, 2019). [https://thehill.com/opinion/civil-rights/472091-kanye-west-a-welcomed-disruptive-voice Kanye West is a welcomed disruptive voice]. ''The Hill''. Retrieved November 27, 2019.</ref> In November 2019 West performed a surprise concert of his album ''Jesus is King'' for 200 male inmates at Harris County jail in [[Houston]], [[Texas]]. West later performed for a smaller crowd of female inmates. According to [[CNN]]. the concert left many inmates in tears, and West said his purpose was “a mission, not a show.” Texas governor [[Greg Abbott]] praised West's actions saying in a [[tweet]], “What @kanyewest does to inspire the incarcerated is transformative. Saving one soul at a time.”<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2019/11/16/abbott-texas-kanye-jail/?utm_source=&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=10953</ref>
Ye said parents need to protect their children from being ‘indoctrinated’ into embracing lives of vapid meaninglessness by the media and the entertainment industry. Speaking to an audience at [[Joel Osteen]]’s church in [[Houston]] West pointed out that many famous people are in service to Satan and not God because they value money and power above all else.
:“You start to feel like Satan is the most powerful and you start to feel that if you service God in life it means you will not prosper and the only way to prosper is in service to fame,” said Kanye. ...Satan stole all the best producers. Satan stole all the best musicians. Satan stole all the best designers. Hollywood puts images and symbolism in movies and tv shows to indoctrinate your kids into lives of emptiness, service to self, and feeding the eye..."
Ye reassured the audience that a shift was happening and that his conversion to Christianity is a major part of that shift. “Jesus has won the victory because now the greatest artist that [[God]] has ever created is working for him…All of that arrogance and confidence and cockiness y’all seen me use before, God is now using for Him.” West turned his attention to [[Cultural Marxism|cultural degeneracy]], telling the crowd; “We have our own daughters and we’re still rapping about trying to hook up with somebody’s daughter.” He went on to urge parents about the necessity of “protecting your kids from the indoctrination of the media, the thousands of thousands of images that are fed to children by the age of 6 or 7.”<ref>https://summit.news/2019/11/18/kanye-protect-your-kids-from-being-indoctrinated-by-hollywood-the-media/</ref>
