It helps to spread awareness, especially among youth who are very curious about all things that they encountered.
Though this isn't new even churches accept Bitcoin as a donation, I have read several articles that some churches do accept Bitcoin as a donation for the faster-accumulating funds.

Not bad at all, the intention of the Pastor was good and it really help both the community and them to improve their skills in crypto.
I have doubt that this Pastor is also a crypto lover which is he loves to share his knowledge with someone which is we know Pastor or Priest are good at giving advice.

I'm sure that the pastor has witnessed how crypto could change lives and as a leader, his intention is to share and spread the good news about it to his congregation. I hope that every church would have this kind of awareness because, to be honest, some religions link cryptocurrency to 666 which sounds crazy. I really wish that more churches would be open to crypto adaptions and see it as a key to financial freedom in the future.

the pastor got a professional to train congregants on crypto. While boasting that such an opportunity can't be got anywhere

There are things needed to be clarified in other to avoid a second thought from people, i think using the word church here looks odd to me from your topic saying "crypto in church" i think this is wrong, first the reason been that you could have stated that a clergy man organises a crypto class, because saying crypto is being taught in church is wrong and i totally disaggree with that because it can compromise the standard and purpose of what the church stands for, another reason why i will stand against your topic is because you're making two wrong steps, first is posting about crypto on bitcoin discussion board, you could have use the word bitcoin or secondly make your post on altcoins discussion, and talking about cryptos in general is a pool of shitcoins except for bitcoin.

First of all I appreciate your thoughtfulness in reminding me about where I was supposed to post my thread, but let me remind you that wherever and whenever cryptocurrency is mentioned the first thing that comes to mind of majority of people is Bitcoin before any alts could follow.

On the other hand my friend, whether clergyman or not, the whole truth is that the whole teaching took place in the Church, so I think you're just being too religious about the whole matter and rather diverting focus from the message the thread introduced to some irrelevance.
Thank you.

Call me crazy, but I have a wild suspicion that this "lesson" may have ended in a pitch of some kind. I have had several "lessons" myself.

Your statement is contradictory, except if your use of "bizarre" doesn't correspond with its real meaning. Otherwise, one would observe that you praised the action of the church in organizing a crypto lesson for its congregation. Why call it bizarre then? Anyway, I believe the church is in order educating its members on current happenings around the world as it concerns financial awareness and uplift. The church shouldn't be heavenly bound that it forgets it's still on earth with all its earthly challenges. If the congregation is taught financial stuff and it prospers, the church prospers with it too, vice versa. It's a simple logic and the leadership of the church knows that.

Does this look like a plus to the crypto community?

The pastor teaching the church about Crypto (how to make money) in order to escape from being enslaved with poverty is a one.
Recently Just in my own story too, A pastor friend in my local church met me in the house that they're going to have a training section (an entrepreneurship week) for secondary school graduating students and other children in the Church, that he would like me to join and share my skills to the children as well,
So I told him that I only got a digital skills to share, that it's all about digital asset investment in Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency, I was a bit surprised when he said that is okay, that there are many students that will fit in that category and they're already on ground.When I got there and gave them lectures on Bitcoin, I was really shocked with how the children catched up and the pastor begged I should come back next time to complete the lecture.

Bitcoin is money and money is used in the church, so if Bitcoin becomes the future of money as we hope, then even the church will make use of it.
This is how fast Bitcoin is growing.

Yes absolutely.
I mean we always encourage people who spread about Cryptos at various places. Really glad to see that the church has taken a great step.
Our main motive is to spread the news of Cryptos all over the nation.
Also if possible educate different people about cryptos and Bitcoins whenever possible. Moreover it’s also great that when people manage to hold their money in a decentralised manner.
Really appreciate everyone who took this initiative.

...the pastor got a professional to train congregants on crypto.

This is wonderful to read and something that I wish other religious leaders can emulate instead of only being spiritual all the time which can get boring and scare some people especially the young ones from Church. If more churches emulate this and engage the youths more in activities like this that they see are contemporary and have physical benefits to them and their lives...More youths will not leave their churches and will find Christianity more practical and not boring.

Also the involvement by the church can also help change the minds of those extra religious person's who have never believed in crypto.

While this looks bizarre, I think it's good that a church is doing a useful thing. Historically, churches have been responsible for education in many places, so the mission of giving knowledge (and not just the knowledge regarding a specific religion) has been implemented by churches for a long time. That being said, we currently live in quite a different world, where there are plenty of schools and other education facilities. Also, while teaching about Bitcoin and blockchain would be good, I am not sure about trading specifically. Trading is something that can lead to losses of money, and no prayer will save people from that.

Cryptocurrency as a digit asset based currency is on a daily gradually gaining the widespread acceptance as expected, looking at 2010 compared to this day 2022 the awareness and engagement has been tremendous and it's quite a welcome development despite the ban placed on it by few governments.

I came across a video that has made social media talking which shows how a crypto class was conducted by a church for it's members to be educated about the knowledge of cryptocurrency.

According to the source:
The video was captioned, "Crypto training. Proverbs 14:23In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to poverty.'' According to the netizen who shared the clip, the pastor got a professional to train congregants on crypto. While boasting that such an opportunity can't be got anywhere, the netizen expressed joy that 'kingdom wealth is on the way.' In the clip, a projector is seen displaying a crypto trading chart while people listened.
