Justin Bieber taking time for personal life

Pop star Justin Bieber will record new music in the future but needs some time for himself right now.

A source told tmz.com that "music has always been a major release for Justin and he's constantly in and out of studios working on new tunes".

He also plans to return to touring, but will not embark on such a lengthy world tour like "Purpose" as it left him exhausted.

Previously, Hillsong Church pastor Carl Lentz described Bieber as a "good Christian", and quashed speculations that the singer is paid to attend church events, as he insisted the star is simply using his faith to guide himself through new chapters in his life.

He said: "We don't pay him to attend. He comes on his own. I think that Justin is a good Christian. I don't think his problems are behind him, but we all have to deal with other stuff to come.

"His relationship with Jesus is changing his life daily. It is one of those things where you never really get it, it takes a while to keep growing as a person. Every day he is getting older, and with each chapter comes new growth... This is what conference is all about.

"Everyone here would buy a ticket and be a part of it. He feels like it is a big part of his year," Lentz added.
