IS SOCIAL MEDIA OUR CONUNDRUM OR OUR ATTITUDE.
social media platform is an open door to promotion of ideals & innovations about organization, business, ideologies etc. The spread of this innovation has find a strong effectiveness in our Church. Majority of parishes has opened social media platform for themselves to promote the gospel of God in the digital world.
However; some factor as also outplayed the authority of the Church like the negative impact of factionalization of various “ Pastor’s” holding to the personal view of some few Individuals. Majority of parishes established today are built by LANDLORD SHEPHERDS”.
The impact of the “ free access to establish a parish” without any guidelines from the authority also contribute to the negative ineffectiveness of the Church image. Some landlord Shepherds applied for loans from BANK to construct their parish, while the Shepherds will never stop their member’s from any negative behavioral attitude.
It a fact that we accommodate the highest numbers of yahoo boys & olosho members in some of our parishes today, those TELESTIAL are tactically change the narrative of the Church on social media platform, those individuals give cash to their shepherd in a way to find favor from them. We are currently in a situation where the authority can’t easily identify some of this shepherds nor the member who freely wore our garment to misrepresent the philosophy of the great church.
In less than 90 hours, after the church Spokesman released a press statement concerning the impact of social media platform on the church, we have witnessed (2) different videos of members wearing our garment drinking alcoholic gin on Instagram & Facebook. The Spokesman must understand one fact; the Church structure is beyond forceful implementation of policies.
We must return back to the drawing board to review the instructions given to us by the Pastor Founder.
