According to him, the idea is concerning.
Speaking in a video that has now gone viral, the pastor criticized the approach used by Nigerian pastors.
The UK-based pastor said:
‘’Mega church or church versus impact. A lot of young people coming up in their own world, business, streamers are asking ‘’I do not go to church in Nigeria. Should I feel guilty?' I say don't feel guilty. You do not have to.
The idea of mega churches in the world and in Nigeria is actually concerning. It was the system we grew up in. That means, a person builds a large auditorium, puts a crowd in it, it fits the ego of the pastor..he feels God must be with him that is why many people are there and so the younger pastor is trying to sow to become a mega pastor as well.
They forget impact, Impact is actual and real communities positively infiltrating different industries and bringing souls to God for real. Like real evangelical work and not the recycling of Christians.
Countries like India and Brazil have built mega churches becauses there is so much poverty. The government is not functional in those countries. People need hope.
If you are to chose impact over mega church, I am telling the young pastor who is bending their back to become like their father in faith that you do not need mega church.''
