520 |a Religious language has the potential to shape the mindsets of human beings. Further, it is probable that religious utterances will affect adherents’ responses to real-life situations. With the aid of speech-act theory, this article investigates how religious utterances used by church leaders in framing public discourse modified some social perceptions of Christians during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research shows the impacts and limitations of speech-act theory concerning the influence of church leaders over their adherents during the COVID-19 era. In dialogue with the CAN-CRS Report, the research shows that some Christians differed from their pastors on certain COVID-19 related issues.
