Techfile: 7 Things Nigerian Pastors Can Learn From Pope Francis - religion
From living an austere life, being versatile to
being a source of comfort, There is much our
Nigerian pastors can learn from pope francis.
Here are a few of the top lessons our Nigeria
pastors can learn from him. 1. Humility is All
Pope Francis’ humble nature has turned heads,
as he chooses to live more simply than past
Popes. He is a spiritual leader of 1.2 billion
catholics yet choose to live a simple life, Pope
Francis usually rides in your everyday Ford
Focus, instead of using a custom-built car with
bulletproof glass. Recently, he auctioned off a
200,000 Lamborghini he received as gift. – Why
should he ride in a 200,000 car when there are
people who can’t even afford a slippers.
He shows us that we are not to pursue money
or prestige. Instead, we should embrace
humility and strive to live more like Jesus.

A typical Nigerian daddy pastor doesn’t care
about the souls of the gullible Nigerians
attending his church, or the number of
increasing starving children in Nigeria , all what
he cares about is the riches he can amass from
them. Thats why some of them are even proud
owners of luxurious cars and private jets. 2. Be Simple
On Pope francis his tour to Africa in 2015, as the
rest of the world were making noise about
security, pope francis was only worried about
mosquitoes! Here in my country some daddy
pastors are even scared of walking in their own
house of wealth also known as church without
bodyguards. Talk more of when they leave the
church premises. 3. Be a servant

Nigerian daddy pastors on the other hand see
their congregation as their servants to be used
in whatever way they like. 4. Be Versatile
One of the things most of us love about the
Pope is his nature to address topics most
religious people would rather sweep under the
carpet. Homosexuality, sexual abuse, paedophilia
etc.
Nigerian pastors, on the other hand, are stuck
on the prosperity gospel" Talking always about
giving, sowing of seeds and tithing and how it
will help you prosper. 5. Be a Source of Comfort
The Pope reaches out to the sick, disabled,
deformed, sexually abused, refugees and those
hurting. He has hugged people with diseases,
kissed the feet of teenagers in a juvenile
detention center, allowed a child to sit in his
chair while he spoke to a crowd, and made a
personal phone call to comfort a rape victim.
Wherever he goes or whatever he does he
leaves blessings. He is a source of comfort.
Nigerian pastors, on the other hand, aren’t.
(Well, they are but only to the wealthy). Most of
them see destruction and pain in their path and
just walk pass. To them poor people are cursed.
If you don’t have anything to offer to then, if
you are poor, then you are on your own. 6. Giving is Golden
Pope Francis shows us how to give freely and
expect nothing in return. Last year, the Pope
auctioned off his motorcycle to fund a soup
kitchen. He also started a campaign to install
showers in the Vatican for homeless people to
use. This year, he auctioned off a 200,000
lamboghini he received as a gift and gave the
proceeds to charity.
Pope Francis gives these services to people who
cannot give him anything in return except their
gratitude..
A typical Nigerian pastor on the other hand
would rather take from the little you have in
your purse than give you from the many he has
in his own purse. 7. Accessibility
Pope Francis is the leader of nearly 1.1 billion
Catholics, yet he has made an artful, thoughtful
connection to be accessible.
Meanwhile here in Nigeria it’s like our daddy
pastors are competing to see who will emerge
the winner as the most inaccessible.
