Bishop Paul Luzinda Kizito Urges Christians to Reject Ungodly Acts and Embrace Spiritual Priorities

Elia Paul Luzinda Kizito, the retired third Bishop of Mukono, has raised concerns over behaviors that do not glorify God, including gossiping, pursuing same-sex relationships, and prioritizing material pursuits over spiritual responsibilities.
