Maina And King’ang’i In The Morning:Did Mavuno Church Take It Too Far With The Sexy Poster?

Over the weekend, Mavuno Church decided to steer away from the norm; they tried reaching out to the youth with things they can relate to, seeking inspiration from some of the biggest hits of 2013 and popular S&M book. 

They put up a poster of a couple with a girl’s thighs exposed with to advertise a teenage convention dubbed Blurred Lines that aimed to teach children about sex in a language they can understand.

The convention would be held in 4 days (2nd, 9th,16th and 23rd March) and each day would have its own theme 2nd You can gerrit,9th Shades of gray 16th blurred lines and 23rd Friends with a monster. You can check out the poster here:

This poster has caused quite the storm on social media especially among the Bible Thumpers who condemned the church for being too liberal with religion.

In the spirit of the hottest discussion in the country, Maina and King’angi decided to discuss this controversial move by the church.

They posed this question: Should churches remain conservative or is it a wonderful strategy for them to ‘coolify’ the church? We’re talking about that controversial poster by Mavuno church that was for the teens and it caused uproar on Social Media over the weekend. Pastor Mureithi says that this is to connect with the teens and it is because this is where the teens’ (youths) minds are. If someone doesn’t address these issues, they will remain a blight in the society – it’s time to talk to the youth in their language. Is this the correct approach? Should the church be always rigid?
