Pastor Mike Todd Breaks His Silence On Druski’s Viral Megachurch Skit That Everyone Thinks is About Him

Pastor Mike Todd is speaking out on Druski’s pardoy of the megachurch that had the whole internet talking.

The internet exploded last week when comedian Druski dropped a now-viral parody skit of the Black megachurch on social media. Portraying a pastor flying down from the ceiling, wearing designer drip and doing the worm on stage, Druski received nearly 8 million likes and close to 70,000 comments from viewers on TikTok.

Most who saw the skit were quick to draw comparisons between his antics and those of real-life Pastor Mike Todd of Transformation Church in Tulsa, OK. Todd is known for making viral videos of his own, doing everything from getting a haircut to pouring syrup on the Bible while preaching the word. Now, Todd is speaking out and calling the whole conversation a distraction.

In a sermon, Pastor Todd said that while he thought Druski’s video was “hilarious,” he didn’t think it was a personal shot at him, instead calling it an attack on Christian people’s focus on their assignment from God.

“Do you know how many people didn’t spend time with their kids, fighting with somebody they don’t know in the comments?” he asked his audience. “There were people who did not do what God said to do this week, ‘cause they needed to be in the know of what was happening in culture.”

But many online didn’t buy Todd’s dismissal and think he is the one who should be more focused on the word.

“The fact that you’re talking about it so long, showing that you’re distracted and your focus is gone. You should be preaching the word, but you’re distracted by the video,” wrote someone on Instagram.

Other commenters thought the pastor should have used the skit as a teachable moment and an opportunity for him and other leaders in the Black church to do better.

“This would have been better if he would have just laughed, acknowledged that it was funny and accurate, said ‘yes we do need to do better if this is how we’re being perceived,’ and went on about his day with an uplifting sermon,” wrote someone on Instagram.
