The Nigerian church is arguably the most powerful and influential church in the world. Before anyone contends with this assertion, take a look at the church’s exploits in the last 20 years. The top 5 largest church auditoriums in the world (Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Living Faith Church Worldwide, Deeper Life Christian Ministry, Mountain of Fire, Redeemed Christian Church of God and Miracles Ministry and the Apostolic Church) are all domiciled in Nigeria.

The church’s multiple primary and secondary schools across the country, that have partly contributed to the rescue of the Nigerian education system from complete collapse, are part of her exploits. The best private university in Africa, Covenant University, is owned by a church.

The Nigerian church through its different missions, has exported the gospel of Jesus to other parts of the world. There are some individual Nigerians, who have a large congregation in the diaspora. And one of them is Pastor Sunday Adelaja, the first black pastor to lead an all-white congregation in the world. His church, the Embassy of the Blessed Kingdom of God for All Nations, which is based in Kiev, Ukraine, is the largest evangelical church in Europe.
