CRGC exists to:

 

  • Equip pastors, missionaries, church workers, and students of theology and religious studies with the resources to address the practical, spiritual and academic challenges facing Christianity in Nigeria and in other parts of the world.
  • Provide a first class library that holds relevant collections that the conventional universities, seminaries and theological colleges in Nigeria do not have in their libraries. CRGC’s library would serve as a place for active research for pastors, church workers, and students of theology and religious studies to re-sharpen and re-equip themselves for the kingdom of God in their communities. It will equally provide an opportunity for scholars and missionaries from other parts of the world to spend their sabbaticals researching and lecturing.
  • Promote reflection and conversation on important practical issues facing African Christians (e.g. religious conflicts, political instability, social injustice and lack of sound biblical teaching) through conferences, research, teaching, and publication.
  • Promote and facilitate grassroots and local publications in Christian preaching, pastoral care, worship, missions and theology. 
  • Equip local leaders to address social injustice, poor health services, and poverty in their communities.
