Are you serioushuh?
How do you compare Wizkid's show to a song ministration inside the CHURCH huh?
I'll be wasting precious time doing this with you.
Ciao.

Scope of church services in that you don't expect the pastor to start teaching people how to conduct weddings or church management in a bible study service or prayer meeting.

People who have been called need to be trained to manage their gifts properly. As powerful as the prophetic gift is, for example, it can be used to destroy a family if not handled correctly. Jesus taught and mentored 12 disciples. The training the 12 received was not the same as the training given to the crowd at the temple. Consider Apostle Paul and his mentee, Timothy. Same principle. Paul taught multitude like you would do in Bible studies, but he had people he taught the basics of church management and dispute resolution.




We know it is mainly to minister to the people. But we also know that, many times, churches invite them to draw crowd. However, we can’t use that as a reason to charge appearance fees. After all, many men of God also receive the same invitations for the purpose of drawing the attention of the multitude in hopes of winning them over, without charging any appearance fees.

See, nothing justifies appearance fees. Let’s just leave it at that sha.
MOGs don't call it appearance fees but a pastor colleague at RCCG confirmed to me that inviting his fellow pastor to his church is at a cost as they're not expected to go empty handed and if he's invited, he's expected to be honored. It's now a NORM not expressly stated but implied.

The pastor is correct. It's called honorarium. Even in my church, there's an unwritten rule that you cannot invite guests - whether a pastor or an artist - to your church and leave them empty-handed. This is quite different from appearance fees, which typically involve fixed amounts, legal conditions and consequences, down payments, and invoices.
