“I told her several times not to kneel” — Husband sends wife away after she knelt for pastor

A woman has shared how her husband sent her back to her father’s house after she knelt to greet their pastor during a church service.

According to the woman who shared the story, the husband had repeatedly warned his wife against kneeling for any pastor, insisting that she should accord him the same level of honour.

The woman reportedly told her husband that she and other church members traditionally kneel when greeting their pastor because they regard him as their spiritual father.

Wife apologises but husband remains upset
The disagreement reportedly came to a head last week when the couple attended church together and the woman once again knelt to greet the pastor.

After they returned home, the husband reportedly asked her to leave and return to her father’s house.

According to the account, the wife apologised and explained that her action was part of the church’s practice, but her husband was allegedly unwilling to accept the apology.

The woman is now said to be staying at her father’s house while her family members continue to plead with the husband to reconsider his decision.

Marriage dispute sparks discussion
The incident has generated discussion about respect in marriage, religious customs and boundaries between spouses and spiritual leaders.

While the woman reportedly considers kneeling before the pastor an expression of respect, her husband is said to view the gesture differently because she does not kneel before him.

The couple’s current situation remains unresolved, with the woman’s family reportedly still making efforts to reconcile both parties.

Internet tales. Just a quick question, how is the family begging? Is the wife also begging with her relatives or it's the family alone? I want to know if she is now willing kneeling to apologize

Kneeling to greet her pastor is not a bad idea but she should also kneel for her husband too .

If that's the culture in her church, then it should be applied in double fold in her house cos her husband is the first and closest spiritual father, president, governor, chairman, and Lord over her..

Nonsense...

To hell with any rubish tradition.

Bowing down and kneeling down is only reserved for God your maker to reverence Him.
Even Angels are not supposed to receive our bowing down for, not to talk more of an ordinary pastor.


Infact if there's any other at all wife's should bow or kneel for should be their husbands, because in Ephisian the Bible said treat your husband like unto God.


Bow for which pastor, abeg that woman suppose go temporarily her papa house, because she has defiled the home and the wrath of God

I'd also be jealous if my husband offered his female pastor a hand-kiss each time he greeted her, there wouldn't be any peace at home until he stops.

She does not kneel down for him at home but she can kneel down for pastor, she has ranked pastor higher than her husband

You can kneel for your Pastor but you cannot kneel for your husband who happens to be your lord. Stupidity taken too far.

If verminnel try ham with me I go divorce her

Some men just too doooo

I blame the woman's family for going to beg that nincompoop of a husband

I won't even warn , once my wife does this she done go o. Whether she kneels for me at home or not. She's gone. If the pastor like make he b 80 yrs old man or Spiritual grand father.

I understand the church traditions but I think Pastors should emphasize the need for spouses to honour each other first. Most spouses show more love and respect to outsiders than they do at home and based on scripture, your pastor is an outsider before God when marriage is considered. The family is a crucial unit of the church. Without the family where is the church?


In my church, whenever my wife says my husband said.... na there the matter go end. If you no like am go meet my husband.

2 types of people in our society, the cultured ones and the uncultured ones.

The head of man his God The head of a woman is her husband, so says the holy book. so if the husband gave instructions she should have obeyed . But still not enough to send her away. Oga pastor to the rescue

Omo Nna Cownu we sight you

I agree with the man. Idolising another man when your husband should be your lord is a no no

That possessed gender, always at prayer house and deliverance .

Their problem is beyond kneeling down. I'm Sure they have other salient problems.

After sex, no more respect….

Unless you are a monarch, women dont kneel to who’s fvcking them….

Is it by force to attend that church. Find another church name and let the wife accord the same respect and deference he gives the pastor to the husband

It's not the woman's fault. Why would you follow your wife to a church whose practices you disagree with?

Good riddance...

I'm sure she wouldn't do that to her husband. Imagine if the pastor is uncouth and request for doggy, she'll gladly position

A wife has no business reverencing her pastor above her husband.... that's how some guillible women have lost their marriages to randy womanizing pastors.

Your husband would simply send you back to your papa's house to maintain peace within his space. Shikena.

You did well
She can kneel for daddy but can't kneel for her husband

Exactly, tit for tat. If you can't do it for me, don't do it for him. If you can kneel for him, also kneel for me.

pain is that you? You can go ahead and do same to your pastor

If she wants to kneel to greet her pastor she must also be ready to kneel while greeting her husband

She cannot be dishonoring and disrespecting her husband and be honoring and respecting her pastor, the wife is not serious

You see church girl,you marry her,she does what church girls do,you're offended. Shey because she hasn't sold your car and taken to her daddy G.o and told you the lord ministrerd to her to sell your car and give daddy G.o.

Oga go and beg her. You have no right to be upset
