Los Angeles, Feb 17 (TIWN) The trailer of the docu series, 'Hillsong: A Megachurch Exposed' was unveiled on Wednesday (U.S. Pacific Standard Time). The series follows the investigation into a church which gained recognition because of its celebrity congregation, such as Justin Bieber, various Kardashians and other stars, reports Variety.

Founded by Brian Houston in Australia, the Hillsong church is an offshoot of Brian's father Frank's Sydney-based Pentecostal church. It stood out by putting an emphasis on music as a part of worship.

As per Variety, Houston later decided to export Hillsong internationally, and recruited pastor Carl Lentz to lead its New York City chapter. Lentz became famous in his own right -- and was often photographed alongside Bieber and other celebrity congregants -- until Houston fired him in November 2020 for "moral failures," among other issues.
