Pastor Elvis Agyemang, the founder and leader of the Alpha Hour Prayer movement, recently shared his views on relationships and friendships. He emphasized that if a relationship is not a courtship, individuals can have multiple friends. According to Pastor Agyemang, friendship is a crucial part of life, and people should feel free to have multiple friends. He even mentioned that one can have up to five boyfriends or girlfriends to help decide which one is the best fit when it comes time to settle down.
In the CA episode, Pastor Agyemang spoke about having multiple girlfriends without any form of intimacy. He explained that this approach allows individuals to get to know themselves and their friends better over time. With prayers and self-reflection, one can eventually determine which friend fits them “perfectly.”
Pastor Agyemang pointed out that many people involve sex and other factors in relationships, turning them into romantic affairs. He argued that if these factors were not present, there would be no need to worry about cheating and unfaithfulness. He stated, “If it is not a courtship, you can have three boyfriends or three girlfriends. That is why it is called friendship. It is a process of knowing each other. But we have included sex and unnecessary privileges, so we have the issue of cheating. Come and cook for me, sleep over, sex, among other things, have made it a single partner concept even though you are not in a courtship.”
The issue of relationships among the youth has been a matter of great concern in recent years. Many young people enter relationships with the mindset of sex, romance, and other marital roles, which affects the true purpose of a relationship. Often, partners argue about each other’s faithfulness, making it a challenging issue to address.
Pastor Elvis Agyemang’s Alpha Hour Prayer movement is a non-denominational Christian night prayer session. The movement believes that late-night prayer is effective for spiritual warfare. Through these sessions, Pastor Agyemang aims to guide individuals in their spiritual and personal lives, including their approach to relationships.
