Lauren Daigle is a Grammy Award-winning Christian artist whose album Look Up Child (2018) became the most successful Christian album since the genre's commercial peak. Her music is consistently excellent and explicitly Christian. However, a 2018 interview created controversy when she said she didn't know whether homosexuality was a sin.
Lauren Daigle's music is among the best Christian music available. Songs like "You Say," "Trust in You," "Rescue," and "Still Rolling Stones" are theologically grounded, musically compelling, and genuinely worshipful. Her voice is extraordinary. Look Up Child crossed over into mainstream charts while maintaining its explicitly Christian content — a remarkable achievement.
In a 2018 interview on the Domenick Nati Show, Daigle was asked whether homosexuality is a sin. She responded: "I can't say on one way or the other. I'm not God... I can't speak on something that I honestly don't know where I land." This caused significant controversy in Christian circles. The biblical teaching on sexuality (Genesis 2:24, Romans 1:26-27, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10) is clear, and a Christian artist with her platform choosing not to affirm it raises legitimate questions about whether her crossover success came at the cost of prophetic clarity.
Lauren Daigle's music remains excellent and her overall public conduct is positive. The 2018 interview was a stumble rather than a sustained pattern of compromise. 80/100 Spiritually Safe reflects outstanding music with a noted concern about public witness on a clear biblical issue. Her catalog is recommended for Christian families. See her profile.

Evaluating whether a celebrity is a Christian requires distinguishing between: cultural Christianity (grew up in church), nominal Christianity (identifies as Christian without active faith), and genuine Christianity (personal faith in Jesus Christ evidenced consistently over time). GodlyScore applies a consistent standard: documented public evidence. "The LORD looks at the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7). Score: 80/100 Spiritually Safe.
See our Christian Celebrities hub for other public figures assessed with the same standard. The Gospel Coalition provides additional cultural context.
