- Young Kenyan pastor ditches robes and suits for biker shorts in church.
- Move sparks heated debate on respect, tradition, and modern culture.
- Supporters say style helps connect with Gen Z; critics see it as disrespectful.
In a bold move that has left Kenya’s church circles buzzing, a young pastor walked to the pulpit in biker shorts instead of the usual robes and suits.
Recently featured by NTV Kenya, the preacher’s unusual fashion choice has split opinions both online and in congregations.
To critics, the look is a dangerous break from church traditions, where formal dressing is seen as a sign of respect and holiness.
To his supporters, it is a refreshing way of making the church relatable, especially to younger generations.
With many churches struggling to appeal to Gen Z, some see his decision as a wake-up call for religious leaders. The focus, they argue, should be on the message, not the wardrobe.
“Faith isn’t about the clothes, it’s about saving souls,” one supporter said.
Love it or hate it, the biker shorts have become more than a fashion choice. They now represent a clash between tradition and modern culture and could reshape how Kenya views faith in a changing world.
