Why Don't Preachers Use "Pidgin" For Preaching by Meajor(m): 9:23am On Jul 01, 2018
I have been having this thought for a long time, I keep on wondering why preachers don't use pidgin to preach, given that majority of Nigerians use it.
Going through History Jesus didn't speak Hebrew, but Aramaic and Aramaic then can be compared to our local naija English... and even the Apostles their Greek wasn't really a fluent Greek.... So the question once again is why don't we use pidgin to preach??

It's because they run ministry like companies, competing with worldly standards.

Their focus is not to communicate the message of The Kingdom to all, but to get more customers.
