A Kenyan pastor, James Ng'ang'a has recently caused a stir after sharing a candid and humorous conversation he had with his daughters.
During the conversation, the cleric said he made it clear to his daughters that having children while still living under his roof would not be tolerated.
In a sermon, delivered with his signature blend of humour and stern advice, Pastor Ng'ang'a recalled warning his daughters, “If you have a child while living in my house, you'll have to leave. We can see each other, but if I am to support you, it will have to be from outside. You can't raise a child in my house and then bring another one, calling them grandchildren. Whose grandchildren? I'm a grandchild myself! I didn't get saved for that.”
His remarks sparked a flurry of reactions online. Many praised the preacher for his straightforwardness, with one user commenting, “He is very right. That's how it should be.”

Another added, “Always the man of the people,” while others couldn't help but laugh at his humorous delivery, noting, “Pastor Ng'ang'a is the best comedian we have as a country.”
Pastor Ng'ang'a also expressed concern that young women who have children out of wedlock while still living with their parents are more likely to have children with different fathers.
He said: “If you follow the right path, I will welcome you. If you are married, I can invite your children to visit. But if one daughter sees another bringing a child home, the next one might not hesitate to do the same. That's how you end up spoiling an entire generation.”

Unsurprisingly, his message is supported by Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Further to that, 1 Corinthians 6:18 adds: “Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.”
