She explained that she was once active in church activities but later realised that attending services alone does not guarantee favour with God.

Sarah Martins, the Nollywood actress, has shared her reasons for no longer attending church, despite identifying as a Christian.

She explained that she was once active in church activities but later realised that attending services alone does not guarantee favour with God.

In an interview with The PUNCH, she revealed that her decision to stop going to church came after repeated experiences of pastors making unwanted advances toward her in every congregation she joined.

This led her to focus on building a personal connection with God, keeping a promise to remain faithful and live in ways she believes please Him.

Martins added that she now expresses her faith through charity work and private worship, which she said has brought her answered prayers.

“I am not an atheist. I’m a Christian, and I used to be very active in church, but over time I realised that going to church alone doesn’t make you God’s favourite. It’s what you do behind closed doors that really matters.

“Unfortunately, in every church I attended, the pastors started making advances at me. So, I stopped. I built a personal relationship with God and made a promise to stay faithful to Him by doing things that please Him.

“Since then, every time I go down on my knees, He answers. So yes, the pastoral advances pushed me away, but I now worship God in my own way—through charity and personal devotion.”

Afrobeats superstar Davido has spoken about how the painful loss of his 3-year-old son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, in 2022 completely changed his outlook on life.

Ifeanyi tragically drowned in a swimming pool at the singer’s Banana Island home in Lagos in October that year — a moment that shook fans across the world.

In a recent interview with ABC News’ Rocsi Diaz, Davido revealed that the tragedy gave him a new perspective, both on life and his music career. He said stepping away from the spotlight for a while allowed him to reflect and refocus.

“Stepping away after losing my son and being able to look back on my career gave me a refocus on how I wanted to move forward. It changed my life,” he shared.

The singer also spoke about how he and his wife, Chioma, found the strength to keep going, a journey that has now inspired many people.

“I know how many who randomly come to me at the airport to tell me how my strength has inspired them in hard times. I was telling my wife the other day that I’m proud of how we bounced back. Now, we have twins. They are big and shouting everywhere. For us to be able to go through the loss of our son and be able to bounce back in a major way is huge,” he said.
