-A Member Corrected My Sermon – Sam Adeyemi Recounts
The Senior Pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, Sam Adeyemi recently shared a personal anecdote about being corrected by a church member during a sermon.
In a podcast circulating on social media, the clergyman recounted the incident, which took place a few years before the COVID-19 pandemic, during a teaching session in church where he claimed that the eagle is the highest flying bird in the world—an assertion he had heard for decades.
“The next day, a church member sent a text message to Pastor Nick and said, ‘I know I don’t have the right to correct Pastor Sam, but he said something in church yesterday that the eagle is the highest flying bird in the world. That statement is not correct,’” he said.

Correcting himself, Sam Adeyemi revealed he went to the internet to check for himself, and saw the correction was valid.
“As she was saying it, I was on my phone checking on Google. The person was right. The eagle doesn’t even come within the first ten,” he admitted.
Acknowledging his mistake, he returned to church and issued an apology. “I went back to church and I apologised. I told them, this is what one of you said. I checked it up,” he said.
