DIVCCON seminar on Urban Evangelism and Church Planting


An outstanding seminar was given by Bishop Olusegun Adeyemi, Bishop of Kwara diocese. For 25 years he was a doctor, for eighteen of those years a vicar and has been bishop of the recently grown Diocese of Kwara for five years.

He outlined examples of spiritual growth, evangelism, and church planting from the biblical models given to us by Nehemiah, Esther, Daniel, Jesus, Paul and the Early Church disciples.

As a vicar one of the five churches he pastored had a far higher growth rate (it had an average of 68 people added a month for the last 100 months.) What led to this phenomenal growth? There was one year of discipleship training, then a systematic in-house discipleship training of home groups with weekly Bible Study. To read more, click here.
