Published on July 18, 2021, the article 'The church must quit being neutral party and exhibit a pro-people bias' by Kenya Digest highlighted the need for the church to adapt to the changing times.
The pandemic has ambushed the church, thrusting it into a forced re-imagination of its role in society. As a result, the church is being called upon to exhibit a pro-people bias, moving away from its traditional stance as a neutral party.
By doing so, the church can play a more active role in addressing the social and economic challenges facing communities, particularly in the wake of the pandemic.
