The School of Disciples, which started in 1985, is coordinated by the Training Bureau of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, one of the fastest-growing Church movements headed by a visionary leader, a faithful Church father in this generation who has led the Church to unprecedented growth – The General Overseer – Pastor E.A. Adeboye.
Pastor E.A. Adeboye is the Principle of the School and his adorable wife, a prolific teacher, and astute administrator, Pastor Folu Adeboye, is the Vice-Chair of the School.
It is a school where Christians of all denominations learn how to be true and genuine disciples of Jesus Christ through the in-depth and impactful teaching and practical application of Scriptures.
Jesus commanded us to go into the world and make disciples of every nation (Matthew 28:19) and has given us authority over the powers of darkness (Mark 16:17-18). The course aims to make this a reality in the life of every believer by helping them to understand their true identity in Christ and equipping them with the necessary tools to live a thriving Christian life and to make a difference in their world.
