The entertainment industry in Kenya has over time, proven to have no boundaries. Maybe someone of you recall a Catholic priest from Migori who would rap for his congregation, after his sermon? Then that proves how diverse the industry can be. Just recently we identified other Kenyans who seem multitalented like our priest.
To all my christian brothers and sisters, you can all agree that is nothing good compared to the sacrifice of serving God. The New Testament, says that those whom God will call through Jesus Christ, will leave behind everything including their families, jobs, friends and wealth for the purpose of being shepherds appointed by the Living God. Well, maybe the following list of Celebrities, were inspired by the verse to go and spread God’s word;
