8.
Those that go to church just to leave the house


Some people cannot stay at home on Sundays because of the inevitable questions. Do you know those elderly neighbours/uncles that would ask you every Sunday if you went to church and if your answer was no, would proceed to lecture you for hours. Well some people go to church just so that those people can see them as leaving the house on a Sunday. They have no absolutely no interest in the service but can't afford to be seen as staying at home on a Sunday.

9. - Those that go to church to play Candy Crush

This is becoming very common now. I attend a very popular church in Lagos, and for the past two Sundays, I have had the misfortune of sitting beside guys who spent the WHOLE service playing candy crush. It seems when some people get to levels they can't pass in candy crush, they take it to church hoping the anointing in the atmosphere will somehow help them break those levels.

10. The selfie Champions.

If you go to a big church with very fine lighting and decor you would understand this. After the last service on Sundays, there are some strategic spots in the auditorium where people congregate to take selfies. Some people go to church specifically for those after service selfies. In fact they won't miss it for anything. Whether they gained anything at all from the service matters little once they can get those beautiful pictures.... of course you know ninety percent of them are ladies grin

And there are people like myself who observe all these while still participating actively in the service. cool cheesy wink

Sub Topic: 7 Reasons 21st Century Young Folks Go To Church


Is Tosyne2much around? In some areas, he is guilty of these. As for Naijaboiy, I guess he is a Sunday-Sunday attendie grin

Youths of these days are so organised, their days are well-planned, even on a Sunday!

If by coercion or free will they come, then there is a reason:

1. Their Upbringing

Trust me, the culture of attending Church on a Sunday morning has eaten deep into many young folks that their DNA responds to it by default. They go just because they were brought up that way. Right now, they are losing their drive because they are no longer within their parent's radar. University stress has kept them busy.

2. To free themselves of the boredom of their dad's house

Some, their parents have placed them under "House arrest" or maybe they live in an estate that going out always warrant series of questioning, especially when their parents attend 'AG or DLBC'... Going to church is a great opportunity to see the outside world in reality and not through NL or FB wink


3. To chit chat with friends and gossip mates


Haha...some have more friends in church than outside. Don't think the friends really positively adding to their lives. Those friends of hers gossip everyone from a cute standing usher to the pastor's wife. Funny, guys have such friends too but their discussion revolve around politics to football. Few times, young ladies...


4. To seek after and serve God in spirit and in truth

Many are called but few are chosen ba? Back then, youths were on fire for God but these days, "Updating Dp in Church"...the other day, two ushers were taking a photo in church and I was 'begged' to do it. I was like... Warris dis? The other day too, me sef found myself doing it. Bad influence! Mtcheew!
Only few of my kind are left tho! grin who is on my side? cool



5. To chase girls and Attract Potential Guys

Some guys sha! They've taken their ministry to the 'permanent sight', even to the church. Convincing Sisters to visit them for evening fellowship: there are some invitations that should be turned down. (Remember: He that causeth one of these lil ones to fall, it's better a milestone is placed around his neck and he be drowned in the sea). Whatever that means, it is scary and it looks like Hell has a new software, Hell 2.0 sad

Those ladies sha, with short gowns and skirts, Brazilian hair flowing around and entering your eyes during hot prayer session. Haba! You'll see them looking back to see the current state of their next "maga". They like songs like, "I waka waka, no one no one...I turned around no one no one..." What an opportunity to scan the perimeter for a potential "cute shark" tongue


6. Because They Have Nowhere Else To Go

Yea, they have no where else to go. If they had, you wouldn't see them in church. Have you heard excuses like, "I was washing", "I was reading", "I didn't have money", "I was playing football"? etc
That's the excuse given by youths who go to church because they have no where else to go or nothing to do. When they do, they simply and easily brushed it aside. End Time Is Here O!



7. To display their newest clothes, hairstyle and shoes

When everyone had all their attention on the Pastor, I heard a distracting sound heading towards my direction. I thought I was in the spirit? Who could be moving around when a Message this hot is going on. The figure I saw, one slim girl like that; just there to cause distraction and display her new shoes and perhaps new hair. Was so pissed! Must you cat walk on high-heels in the middle of a Service? Knowing people will stare? Before you know again, they'll go out to wee, just to display...


Well, by now you know where you fall.

You can add more. smiley


For refreshments...

Most churches give refreshments to new attandees, so one can regularly hump from church to church for free Sunday breakfast.

Some graduates will be looking for a church that rich folks worship to also worship there.While the guyz will worship there to catch several sugar mummy's or big men for jobs,the ladies will be looking for a sugardaddy for husband or financial assistance in kind.

Churches deliberately mount wall sockets on the wall and pillars of their church so as to gather more members.This days,churches don't count the numbers of soul they win for christ,they count the number of congregations that comes every sundays and try to increase it so that tithes and offering will increase.

You concluded too hastily. Not every one is guilty of that act. And by the way, dancing is a very crucial aspect of worship. It's not bad when you go to church mainly to dance.
