The devil pushed me to give testimony on my birthday, as I reach alter with all eyes on me, my brain went blank.

That was how I started stammering in the presence of My crush, my enemy, my family, strangers, and those who took me to be smart e.t.c....

I just managed to say "happy birthday to me" and dropped the mic.
On the way to my sit(with shaky legs) it was as if ground should swallow me.
how old are you then

The church is my Father's house. I can never be embarrassed in my father's house. Never.

The only words that matter in my Father's house are what He saith, and not what others say.
that's it, a lot of young people come to church with so much ego and feel that any corrections from the Lord through anyone is an embarrassment, that's why they see the church as a social gatherings

Sexy fresh fine girl with big nyash never give you erection for church before grin grin grin

Wow! You sure have a dirty mind bro.

Why should I?

That's God's way of reminding me to be thankful for my gbola that can stand at attention at the sight of His beautiful paragon of beauty. Do you know some men cannot even get it up no matter what? Do you know for some men, you have to booth the gbola like a corrupt windows vista (home edition), before it receives life.

And for others, the woman will have to drag the gbola like an old rickety I beta pass my neighbour tiger generator before it generates a shred of weak current?

I see beauty in everything bro. My speciality is to turn situations into testimonies.

Does your church use hymn apps or hymn books?
Does your church use a particular version of the Bible or different versions?

You may not use your phone to disturb or distract others, but you it could be distracting to you.

It's very easy to say that you're using your phone only phone Bible reading reading and hymns. But it would always be tempting to pull it out to check if someone has replied you on WhatsApp or to check someone's status.

jaymichael:
It is your phone, your personal property. I take my phone to church which I may use alongside my tablet. I have my bible and hymns app on both. I primarily use the tablet for both hymns and bible reading. If the hymn called isn't in my hymn app on my table, I use my phone to search for the hymn on the Internet. I always put my tablet on AIRPLANE MODE and SILENT/DND. My phone will be on SILENT/DND mode when I am in the church. I won't use the phone to disturb or distract anyone. I don't have paper bible again for some years now when I have more than 20 different versions of bible app on my phone and tablet.

Mine was when I decided to ask a question one day during Sunday school service.

I already memorized the question and how I'm going to present it. Time came for me to stand up, i stood up and totally forgot the question I wanted to ask.. Mennnhhhh... It was so. Embarrassing that day.

The congregation I attend (you and I are the church) sell their own hymn book which to me is just a selection of some songs from those old hymn books like "sacred songs and solos" and "Redemption hymnal" (not rccgc's redemption hymnal)
I downloaded "GAC GOSPEL HYMN BOOK" and "SACRED SONGS and SOLOS" both contain 99+% of the hymns my church uses. I especially like that former very much because the songs are also in Yoruba and other languages and it has very rich content. The developers try and it is free.
The distraction is inevitable with my phone on, but with my tablet alone with me, no distractions as I always put it on AIRPLANE MODE when I am in church.

No.

But I felt embarrassed for a Sunday school teacher about 5 years ago.
He wore this very old coat to church for his usual Sunday school teaching. Few minutes into the sermon, he dug his hand into the inner pocket of his famous coat in search of his handkerchief unfortunately, an hungry looking rat jumped out of his pocket and disrupted Sunday school.

Come and see children of God jumping on chairs and screaming at the sight of God's beautiful creature.


I thought you were going to say a pack of condoms dropped or worst still ram's horn wrapped in red and black strips of clothing dropped from his inner jacket pockets. Both have reportedly happened before in church.

The bolded,
Bingo!!

Can your tablet access the internet? If it does then the distraction and temptation would still be there.

Anyway its you and your God. But i just wanted to point out that bringing phones or tablets to church despite your intentions, would always leave you distracted, especially when it comes to a part of service you find boring.

This happened during a church service like that

It was a combined service

We were very close to the end of service, pastor already preached and what was left was for us to bow down our head in prayer and pray for the minister before we will the share the grace

All I noticed afterwards was a usher tapping me, I wan come dey form like pesin that's still deep in the prayers and was busy shaking my head (Werey dey disguise)


I carried head up and everybody had gone home; as in every where don empty the usher was waking me because he wants to lock the door

The usher left and returned few minutes later with 3 more ushers with one of em being their Egbon. They took they phone from me after causing a scene, even threaten to report me to the pastor who would then have me kneel down in the side of the Alter. It was an embarrassing experience ngl
