About the artist
Benny Hinn is a Pentecostal televangelist and faith healer of Palestinian-Israeli origin who became one of the most widely broadcast Christian preachers of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Known for his large-scale «Miracle Crusades» held in stadiums around the world, Hinn built his ministry around claims of divine healing delivered during emotionally charged, music-driven services broadcast globally through his television program «This Is Your Day».
Rather than a musician in the conventional sense, Hinn is associated with contemporary worship and gospel recordings tied to his crusades and ministry broadcasts — songs of praise, healing and devotion such as «Jesus Your Presence Makes Me Whole» and «Holy Spirit, Thou Art Welcome» that reflect the charismatic worship style central to his services. These recordings function as extensions of his preaching, designed to usher congregations into a state of worship before his healing ministry segments.
His ministry, headquartered for decades in the United States, has been both hugely influential within charismatic and Pentecostal Christianity and a subject of sustained controversy over the authenticity of his healing claims and the finances of his organization. Regardless of the controversy, his broadcasts and crusade recordings reached audiences of hundreds of millions across the globe.
