A viral clip of a luxury private jet has pushed veteran journalist Beatrice Marshall to explain publicly why she no longer sets foot in church.
The video, shared by @dailypost_ke, showed Lady Bishop Reverend Kathy Kiuna offering a glimpse inside the aircraft that she and Reverend Julian Kyula used to fly to Charlene Ruto’s wedding in Tanzania.Beatrice Marshall CCTV News – CNTV EnglishMarshall reacted to it on November 11, 2026, but she did not comment on the jet. She chose to talk about her own spiritual life instead.
She wrote that she had left the Church but not God, saying her faith feels much stronger now that she prays in the quiet of her home. She added that her tithes no longer go to a church and are used to pay school fees and hospital bills for other people. Her message ended in a long trail of dots, leaving readers wondering what else she meant to say.
Even so, her position was plain enough. Marshall does not believe she needs a church building to stay close to God, and she prefers to channel her giving directly to individuals who need help.
Marshall is a well-known face in broadcast journalism. She made her name as a television news anchor at KTN before moving to the Chinese broadcaster CGTN.
Her post struck a chord with many Kenyans who have been questioning the direction of modern Christianity, especially the link between prominent church leaders and open displays of wealth.
