Why exactly did he laugh? Are you sure it had anything to do with your age? It's weird though. That was a poor counseling session he oversaw. So what went down with you and your girlfriend afterwards? Did she still deal with you or you went back to her?
no she didn't. She was just making empty threat.

She later came back begging to back to me but I turned her down.

I don't get it. You left without knowing why he laughed and instructed you to return after two weeks?
from observation, he laughed at me because he felt I was too young for a relationship. I felt being mocked.

I attended this church in my new residence for the first time and it was during the church harvest.I was presented with a thanksgiving envelope at the point of entry.The choir are all beautiful females with few of them that i have even toasted.The congregation came out to donate offerings and tithes more than 8 times and i came out to donate only one's.I went home with my thanksgiving envelope without donating a dime because i went to church with only #100 which i have donated as a offering.

Please don't laugh.... I remember so many years ago in church, it was a vigil. I was sleeping and the next thing I heard was "come out"....

I came out and everyone was laughing, it was then I knew that those that were asked to come out, were those who are pregnant, and those expecting the fruit of the womb... I was so embarrassed... so funny

My seat became far from the pulpit, in my mind.. Fada lurd let the ground just swallow me. Kai.

Ok, there was a welfare service in my church and I was busy attending to first timers, so when I finished, I went into the church to sit down. I saw two set of people seated one set was few and the other was crowded, without asking any question I went to sit where there were few people, I saw people looking at me but I didn't understand why, all of a sudden one rude girl that knows me very well o just came to me and asked loudly, are you a widow or an orphan? That's when I realized that where I was seated was reserved for widows and orphans, and I'm a well known person in the church. Shame wey pass shame catch me that day.

it doesn't matter, that shouldn't discourage you, it's the best decision to make. A lot of people want to do the same but are not bold enough to do so. So congratulations.

What else? I was invited to jehovah witness service on a faithful evening, when I got in, I was ushered to the front seated on the first low and the first column.
It's was now time for communion, the usher brought it to my front and he stood there for some good number of seconds like I was supposed to take it so he can move to the next person.
My brother man, I ignorantly took the bread only to discover that I was the only one who took it in a congratulation of over 2000.
I felt like eveporating. To make matter worse, was when they brought the wine. this time I couldn't take it because the whole congregation had their eyes on me to see the only righteous man in their church.

When my girlfriend invited me to her church (celestial church) on getting to the church with my canvas and dreadlock, she just left me and went to greet some members of the church, I was just standing and looked confused on what next to do, I just heard a noise behind me saying "Oooodeeeeee, i didn't know what hit my legs but before I could realize myself I was already on the ground. I open my I eyes and saw up to seven men in white clothes singing, jah jehovah, jah jehovah, jah jehovah. While rotating me. I just saw a tiny space to escape, omo see race, I even pushed one old woman away while trying to escape.

It was during one of the canonical visitation by our then bishop,I bought a digital camera then and wanted to take photos of our bishop, wasn't good at using the camera,the first time I went to take his picture, Bishop posed very well for me to take his picture,I was flashing him the camera without knowing that my fingers were covering the lens, Bishop waited till after church when he was going out with other clergy men and I went to take his picture again still covering my camera lens,Man gave me correction by giving me the biggest knock of my life on my head before the whole congregation, whatever desire that I had to become a photographer was killed that very moment being an introvert and having to find myself in such awkward situation with almost all the church members looking at me,even my bestie then laughed generational wickedness out of me.Odili Okeke, your correction was too harsh on innocent me.

A bit touching...
Sorry that you have to go through such xperience. The good Bishop never intended to the outcome.

From your exprience, what is the best way the Bishop could have used to correct you?
And
What would you do if you have to face a similiar siuation today? Would it kill your dream or you would put it behind you and pursue your dream?

While I was little child, still in the children department back then
I was a complete introvert in church, always minding my business sitting alone
Nah so one day a group of friends always engaging, interactive and playful in church step on my toes
One of them was actually threatening to beat me up
Nah so out of anger, I just throw ham small punch in his mouth, that's how all his teeth fells down on the floor with blood coming out from his mouth
I wanted to run to my parents in the adult department but I was eventually caught by the children department teacher
At the end of the day, bwith a lot of tackling and stuff, the boy mama said they should let me go.

.........I think the best way to correct young people is through heart to heart talk,I write this from my experience as a secondary school teacher (having been a teacher for about 3 years after graduation) who dealt with different characters of kids coming up from different background,I can only just imagine the path my life could have taken if the bishop had corrected me in a more respectful manner that day.

First of all, try attending a sound church closeset to you if you are having transportation challenges. This is the advice I always give to folks, including the ones that attend my church.

Avoid churches where there is too much pressure to give money. GOD is not a tax officer. Lastly, forget about big names also. Just find a church that renews your spirit man through the Word, fervent prayers and fasting. GOD will give you a career breakthrough before the middle of May in JESUS' name!

Stay in GOD'S Presence.

You are like a blind man trying to cure the blindness of another blind man not knowing that both of you are quietly walking into a deep pit

My own wasn't embarrassing, it was funny.

I am not a fan of dancing in the church, whether it is worship, praises or offering time. If clapping hand no do you, leave am.

So it was my first Sunday service in the church and everyone was dancing except me. The pastor's wife was leading the praises and I was on my feet as usual, but I was not dancing. Just clapping and moving my legs to and fro, big uncle style. That is not the kinda dancing they wanted.

So the woman was observing me and I noticed it.

She was like make a joyful noise unto the Lord Jesus... People shouted. I don't do that too. She noticed that I didn't shout and came to me and said.

"Brother, you are not dancing"

I nodded yes.

"You don't know how to dance?"

I nodded yes.

She started dancing in my front in hope that I would join her but I wasn't moved so she danced back to the alter.

Moments later she was like jump up for Jesus.

I stayed glued to my feet so she came back again.

"Brother, you don't know how to jump too" she brought the mic close enough so that people could hear me.

"I am actually very good at jumping up" I said.

"Then why are you not jumping? Are you shy to jump in your father's house"

"I am not shy at all"

"Then why are you not jumping?"

"I am not jumping because there are so many enemies in my father's house" I said pointing at the ceiling fans that were hanging inches away from my head.

The whole church started laughing.

That thing made me popular in the church.

Lol..U cracked me up mehn.. nice 1

It was an embarrassing movement for me. I went for an evening program at one of the churches in my area. It was time to give offering we were given envelope, summoned one of the ushers that I have #200 with me, intent to give #100. The brother told me to put the #200 inside the envelope given and I should come to usher stand for #100 at the end of the program. After the program I went as directed to meet the brother (Usher) it was there I received the schock of my life from the brother that he didn't saw me when I dropped offering. It was a big church though. I was really embarrassed amidst other ushers starring at me like a criminal. Like that wasn't enough, he even went to report me to pastor. Tears was rolling down from my face that day. Thank God that didn't stopped me from going to church or in given.

My brother in Islam. Anywhere wey fine girls dey, I dey enter. I was baptized in the Catholic Church in Primary-4 because I attended a Catholic Primary school, and went to take baptism classes. MFM came to my area some years later, I pursued fine girls enter, dem baptized me. I marry for Winner Church, dem baptized me again. Baptism no dey too much.

When masquerades come out for my area, I still join them in running, dancing, and jumping for about 20 kilometers everyday throughout their festival period each year since primary school till a few years ago when I left my place of birth. But last year when I went to see my old Niggas and partners in small small crime, it was masquerades festival, I still joined them for about 20 kilometres. Ogun and Sango worshippers dey my area, I dey enjoy their roasted yams and palm oil for several years.

This happened in 2011, that night we were at a night vigil.
The pastor of the ministry knows me well, having been told that I am a Minister in my own church so he gives me that respect and once in a while asks me to officiate one way or the other.

So, that particular night, I had slept off during the vigil. I didn't know the pastor had rounded up the prayers and all.
He just passed the microphone to someone asking them to give me to do the final prayer.

ร“mรณ, I was taken by shock. I was just mumbling and fumbling.
I wasn't cohesive.
My best bible verse came to my mind but I just kept repeating it.
That was how they came to collect the microphone from me oh.

The shame that day no be here.
It was like the ground should open it's mouth to swallow me.
