Skit sensation Carter Efe recently shared his reasons for stepping back from regular church attendance, citing discomfort with certain pastoral practices.
In a candid Twitch livestream, the comedian expressed unease over how some clergy members build personal relationships with congregants before making financial demands.
The entertainer detailed how what begins as friendly communication—frequent calls and warm interactions—can evolve into repeated solicitations for personal expenses.
He described a pattern where religious leaders start with seemingly minor requests, like help with transportation or groceries, then gradually escalate their financial expectations.
This practice, he revealed, ultimately led him to avoid church gatherings altogether due to his growing wariness.
In his own words: “First, the pastor acts all friendly—calling you day and night. Next thing you know, they’re asking for fuel money. Then it’s ‘I need ingredients to cook.’
“Before long, they’re constantly hitting you up for cash. That’s why I keep my distance from churches now—too many pastors turn friendships into funding sources…”
