LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN:Musings on the Impact of COVID-19 on the  Church and the Spiritual Lives of Believers.

I am sure we all agree that 2020 has been quite the year, with its  biggest bombshell being the COVID-19 pandemic. We just weren’t ready. We weren’t. This pandemic came and affected every sector, and religious bodies weren’t spared. 

The outbreak at the Shincheonji church in South Korea reinforced public opinion  that churches be closed down till we figured things out. This move was a big blow. Many people took to the streets to jeer at pastors because of the economic implications of the restrictions. It was pretty disheartening to see “Christians” join in the attacks.
