"Greed Has Taken Over" Preacher Claims Young People Avoid Church Due To Its Commercialization By Pastors

Franklin Mondo Mugisha, a prominent Ugandan preacher, has voiced serious concerns about the state of many churches today. In a statement, Mugisha criticized the growing trend of 

commercialization within the church, arguing that it is driving young people away from faith.

Mugisha pointed out that many churches have shifted from their primary mission of preaching salvation, repentance, and righteousness. Instead, he claims, they have become money-making enterprises where individuals exploit worshippers for personal gain.

"The church has drifted from its real purpose and has become commercialized," Mugisha stated. "Once that happens, people will leave."

According to Mugisha, the shift from a focus on salvation to one of humanism and inspirational messages has led to a decline in genuine spiritual engagement.

He believes that many congregants are growing disillusioned with churches that seem more concerned with financial success than with the spiritual well-being of their members.

Mugisha also took aim at modern pastors, noting a significant change in their demeanor over time. 

"When most pastors started, they were humble and for the people. Now, they are guarded like warlords. What are they afraid of?" he questioned.
