| Résumé: | This essay explores a key theme that undergirds Jehu Hanciles’s scholarship—that every Christian migrant is a potential missionary. Using the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) from Nigeria as an example and attempting to discern the RCCG’s popular missiology, the essay grounds Hanciles’s theories to discuss the missionary potential of African Christians scattered around the world. The explosion of the RCCG as a worldwide denomination has been driven by the dispersion of Nigerian Christians from their home country and not necessarily by the sending of missionaries. It thus shows how every Christian migrant can indeed be a missionary. |
