*Books* "FATHERS of the FAITH: Nigeria" - the story of who was responsible for pentecostal beliefs in Nigeria and how

Now you have it: "FATHERS of the FAITH: Nigeria" - the story of the major players in the evolution of the pentecostal church in Nigeria.

You've heard so much;... but here's an authentic story, by a participant historian, of the people who actually championed the propagation of different aspects of pentecostal truth in Nigeria, over a period of almost 100 years. "FATHERS of the FAITH: Nigeria" is a 519-page "eye-witness" document (directly and indirectly) of how the pentecostal church in Nigeria came to be - documenting the actual KEY players, those who propelled Nigeria to believe the pentecostal message, as distinct from those who preach the message without necessarily being the ones that "fathered" it. It's the story of Benson Idahosa, the one whom the author describes as "the Catalyst of the Charismatic Ministry in Nigeria." It's the story of Ayo Babalola, whom the author describes as "the grandfather of the pentecostal ministry in Nigeria," and many more. The book showcases the effect of foreign influences on the development of the pentecostal church in Nigeria; the role played by David Oyedepo, and many more. It's currently available as an e-book and can be downloaded for just N1,000 [4.05 USD] from

I started ministering in our church, the St. Thomas’s Anglican Church, Isinkan, Akure, in 1963, at the age of 9 years, as a Practising Lay-Reader, even at that young age, reading Bible lessons and performing other functions as an officiating minister, short of outright preaching, in the adult congregation of our church. I was under tutelage, to become a Licensed Lay-Reader, and qualified for full-blown preaching as soon as my tutelage was over. The overriding scenario at the time, apart from churches like the CAC of Apostle Babalola (who had died in 1959) and such other “fringe” christian denominations, was the orthodoxy of churches like ours – the Anglican, Catholic, Methodist, mainly speaking. There were others like the Presbyterian, Baptist and even ECWA which were “lesser known” and only concentrated in certai...
