The church may not be the same again after this COVID-19 experience – Sam Adeyemi

The senior pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, Sam Adeyemi, has raised concerns over the changes that could occur in churches after the COVID-19 experinece comes to an end.

Pastor Adeyemi said that the pandemic will greatly affect churches, as some of them may witness a big reduction in their membership as many members might just want to continue worshipping God from home.

In his words,

 “I have pondered upon severally because the church may not be the same again after this COVID-19 experience. As you can see, many people have been receiving messages via online broadcast from their homes. It’s no longer like before that they have to be physically present in churches,” he said.

He also said  that since members are already used to getting broadcast from the comfort of the homes, they would feel reluctant to go to church even after everything comes back to normal.

“Now that many have been used to worshiping God from the comfort of their rooms, will they go to church when COVID-19 is finally over? Many Christians may also feel relaxed on Sundays when they usually go to church,” he added.

“Also, many Christians have started questioning the genuineness of their churches for them with little or no help coming their way during the pandemic period when hunger is holding sway,” he said.
