Gwen Stefani Encouraged Blake Shelton To Go To Church

Blake Shelton talked about God in a recent interview with Nashville's The Tennessean Newspaper.

While in town for last month's CMA Awards, Shelton told The Tennessean that he was worried his country music career was slipping away. He recalls asking himself, “‘How am I going to feel when this goes away?’ I was kind of having that pity party.”

Shelton walked away that night with his first CMA win in five years for Single of the Year for "God's Country." He says that his girlfriend Gwen Stefani encouraged him to start going back to church. “I believe in God now more than I ever have in my life. The biggest part of that is just how (Gwen) came into my life and now our relationship. It’s just too weird. If you take God out of it, it doesn’t make sense. If you put God into it, everything that’s happened with us makes sense.”
