Focus on winning souls than making money – Piesie Esther to gospel artistes

Ghanaian Gospel artist Piesie Esther has urged her fellow musicians to prioritize their spiritual mission of winning souls for Christ over the pursuit of success.

In a recent interview with Graphic Showbiz during the launch of her third annual ‘Made By Grace’ concert, she stressed that the core purpose of gospel music is to spread the gospel and guide people towards salvation.

Piesie Esther acknowledged the importance of financial stability but reminded her peers that the spiritual influence of their music should always take precedence.

“The essence of Gospel music is to spread the Word of God and lead people to salvation. While it’s important to be sustainable in the industry, Gospel musicians should never lose sight of their higher calling to win souls and bring people closer to Christ.

“It’s easy to get caught up in numbers, but we have to remember that we are in this to glorify God. When we think about putting concerts together, the focus should not be on making money but on making a difference in people’s lives,” she said.

She cautioned against getting distracted by the commercial aspects of the industry, emphasizing that the true essence of their work lies in glorifying God.

In recognition of her contributions, Piesie Esther was awarded ‘Gospel Act of the Year’ at the 2024 3Music Awards, which took place on September 28 at the Palms Convention Center in Accra. She won the accolade against a competitive field, including notable artists like Diana Hamilton, Joe Mettle, and Joyce Blessing.

With popular tracks such as “Waye Me Yie” and “Mo,” Piesie Esther has emerged as a key figure in the Ghanaian gospel music scene, enjoying significant acclaim and airplay throughout the country.
