Speaking on challenges the editorial board encountered in the course of the production, Professor Babatunde, who made a review of the book, said the first challenge was the fear of Pastor Kumuyi accepting the project and the second was sourcing the materials for its production.

Chairman of the book launch, Pastor Philip Enweazu, the Anioma region overseer, said the book which contains the biography of Kumuyi gives insight into Pastor Kumuyi’s disposition, his carriage, character, conviction and contribution to the national discourse.

Pastor Enweazu told the people that Pastor Kumuyi, in his teachings focuses on issues that would profit society and not dabbling into political matters that could heat up the polity. He added that Pastor Kumuyi speaks passionately to the Nigerian situation, where he raises the bar of morals for people in authority.

He said the lifestyle of Pastor Kumuyi should be emulated by all ministers of the gospel just as he said political comments should only be made if such comments please God and raise a citizenry that will be God-fearing, responsible members of the society and living a life with an assurance of a place in heaven.

Pastor Enweazu called on men of God to stand in the gap on behalf of nations for an enduring socio-political, economic and spiritual transformation.

The coordinator of the International Friendship League (IFL) a body of professionals in Deeper Life Bible Church who organized the event, Pastor Anslem Egwunatum, said books written about godly characters have inspired many readers and have drawn them to Christ.

He told the people who gathered for the event that “the book is a biography of Pastor Kumuyi, a man of our times that has given all to the service of God. His ministry gave rise to what is popularly known as Deeper Life Bible Church.”

He added: “Whatever status and accomplishment here on earth, we are incomplete without salvation and divine truth in us. This is not a replacement for the Bible but rather a pointer to it. The personality about which the book is written is not the saviour but rather his messenger and purveyor of his salvation message.

“Pastor Kumuyi, a faithful and dedicated servant of God has patterned his life after our Lord Jesus Christ and so his life is worth emulating and his message worth paying heed to.”

He therefore called on all to obtain and read the life transforming and enriching biography and let it spur them into action by giving their lives to Christ and be prepared for the coming of Christ.
