“Why did it happen? The church was turned into a party place, not a prayer place where God’s word was truly celebrated…they were not soul winners; they led praise in church, and when it was time for prayers, they were gone,” Pastor Chris said.
According to the clergyman, the music in the church became worldly as the gospel singers celebrated themselves instead of God.
Pastor Chris stressed that at first, he celebrated them but when he changed, they refused to change with him, so he had to let them go.
“The little money they were making was too attractive to them, so they didn’t want to follow me, so they made a detour….I hope they all repent…..they are not worship leaders,” he said.
