The Home: Foundation to Church, societal and National Growth &amp; Development, and Biblical Perspective of Succession Mandate of a Leader.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">A cross section of the participants who spoke after the training thanked the BS Nigeria for opening their eyes to a lot of things. Speaking about one of the things he learnt at the training, Pastor Michael Ayodele of Christ Mount Zion Church, Ijanikin, Lagos said that he had become aware of the importance of preparing the people that would take over from him so that there would be continuity in the work of God.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Also speaking, Reverend Kolade Olayiwola of the Church of Nigeria [Anglican Communion] said, \u201cI learnt so many things from this training. For a leader to succeed, he needs this type of training. One of the reasons why the ministry does not grow is because we don\u2019t develop our subordinates because we are afraid they will outshine us, but the truth is that when all of us shine together we shine like bright stars.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">In addition to the training, each of the participants received a copy of the Bible. The target is to train a minimum of 7,000 pastors who will also receive a copy of the Bible. The American Bible Society donated the copies of the Bible.<\/div>\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"adL\" dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/p><div data-ad-id=\"32665\" style=\"text-align:center; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;float:none;\" class=\"afw afw_ad_image afw_ad afwadid-32665  \">\r\n                                                            <div style=\"font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#cccccc;\">Advertisement<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessbankplc.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"auto\" max-width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Banner-1.jpg\"><\/a>\r\n                                                                        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bible Society of Nigeria in collaboration with the Church Growth Ministry is building the capacity of ministers and pastors in the areas of crisis management, succession planning and home management.
