Trivia

Judah believes the Seattle Seahawks are God’s favorite team.

According to sources, Judah was the one who urged Selena Gomez to reconcile with Justin Bieber in Norway since she’s a good influence on Justin.

Smith explained:

“She’s the only person who can stop Justin from having a breakdown.”

Smith has described himself as an avid golfer.

Judah cites a prophetic experience during his teens as the inciting incident towards him becoming a pastor. Smith recalled:

“At nine years old, I had a real sense of God telling me that I was going to preach, then at 16, I had a real supernatural encounter with God.”

Judah also said:

”At the risk of sounding incredibly spiritual, I saw things in a dream state, visions, some of which have come to pass in my life.”

Judah reportedly texts Bieber verses each day.

This started in 2010 after Justin Bieber’s mother contacted Judah during Bieber’s Seattle tour. They have been friends ever since.

Smith declared:

“His mom came to a conference and heard me speak. She got a couple of my cassette tapes, and would play them for him while he fell asleep at night.”

Judah later added:

”When we first met several years ago, he said, ‘You used to put me to sleep with your preaching.’”

In 2014, Bieber posted a picture of Judah on Instagram and wrote:

“bible study with Judah Smith.”

Judah is also renowned for his influence on Russell Wilson, an American football quarterback that plays for the Seattle Seahawks.

Russell holds the record for most wins by a National Football League quarterback through seven seasons (75).

During an interview with the Christian Post, Wilson said:

“Faith is a big part of my life, and I talk to my pastor Judah Smith almost every day.”

Russell continued:

”One thing that he has really instilled in my heart this season is the idea of ‘surrender and surround.”

Judah is frequently pictured alongside Carl Lentz, another renowned American Pentecostal pastor, and Justin Bieber.

In 2019, Judah and his wife have launched an app that brings the church closer to you, including a “Daily Spark” inspiration, a virtual lobby, community groups, and prayer. He said:
