Nancy Isime Explains Why She Is Not A “Typical Nigerian Christian”
Nollywood actress Nancy Isime has shared her personal views on faith, saying she does not consider herself a “typical Nigerian Christian.”
Speaking in a recent interview with Jay On-Air, the actress explained that unlike many Christians who rely heavily on pastors or priests for spiritual direction, she prefers to build her relationship with God through personal conviction and intuition while following the teachings of Jesus.
Nancy, however, noted that she still has spiritual mentors and teachers she listens to for guidance and learning.
She said, “I don’t serve mortals. So, I don’t have the need to perform for mortals. And I would always have a mind of my own. I would always do my own thing. I would always figure out God for myself.
“But of course, I have anchors, whom I listen to; preachers like Apostle Joshua Selman. When you understand the kind of preachers I listen to, you will understand where I am coming from. I am not your typical Nigerian Christian, and I don’t want to be. I have my own mindset just like Jesus,” she explained.
The actress emphasized the importance of having a personal understanding of faith while still learning from respected spiritual leaders.
