American rapper Kanye West made a dramatic entrance at his Sunday Service in the city of Atlanta, appearing to walk on water with his children. The rapper and his children are seen seemingly walking across a water body to a choir that also appears to be standing on water.

The gathering, held at the Pinewood Forest in Georgia, included a sunset sermon by televangelist Joel Osteen, who spoke about the story from the Bible in which Jesus walked on water. Later in the service, West’s choir offered attendees a stunning visual by appearing to cross walk on the lake’s surface while performing.

While the trio appeared to walk on water, the illusion was created with the installation of a clear plexiglass structure underneath the water.

Many were angered by the video with some calling it “blasphemy”, others said the rapper’s new service was “dangerous”. However, there were many who said it was very creative and “beautiful”.

I’m farrrr from religious but this feels all types of wrong and offensive.

This is just clear plexiglass about 1-2 inches below water surface. Trick was shown on the TV show that reveals magician tricks.

Come to MN this winter where they truly walk on water.

The event – like other similar events organised by West – drew about 150 invited guests, including singer 2 Chainz, according to a Billboard report. West is all set to release his ninth album titled Jesus Is King next month.

Since it was formed in January 2019, West’s Sunday Service Choir has performed at events across the world, including Coachella and Paris Fashion Week. While it isn’t a church yet, West reportedly attempted to get a trademark on the name of the organisation.
