A Christian pastor has sparked intense debate after delivering a blunt critique of men in the church whom he accuses of deliberately avoiding marriage and family responsibility.
According to the pastor, this reluctance has created social and spiritual consequences that are often ignored.
She argued that many Christian women are increasingly marrying outside the faith because eligible Christian men refuse to commit.

In her view, women are left vulnerable, navigating relationships without long-term security, while some marriages formed outside the church reportedly end in divorce after children are born, exposing those children to different belief systems.
The pastor rejected the common excuse of financial unpreparedness, describing it as a cover for fear and irresponsibility.
She challenged the notion that men must first attain economic stability before marrying, insisting that marriage itself is a foundation for growth and survival.
“Get married first, you’ll survive,” she stated, emphasizing faith over material calculations.
He further linked the rise in prayer camps, counselling sessions, and emotional distress among women to men’s refusal to “step up.” Referencing scripture, she reminded men that marriage and fruitfulness are not optional ideals but central to God’s design for humanity.
While her remarks have drawn mixed reactions online, supporters praise his honesty, saying the message confronts a growing crisis within the church.
