Director Michael John Warren, who says himself is not a religious person has said this of Hillsong United: “Their mission – without exaggeration – is to make music to save souls. They are trying to get people to discover Jesus. That’s probably the most righteous reason to make music. Whether you’re religious or not, it’s hard to look at that and not feel good about it.”
