CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

• Background to the Study

The slow rate of church growth in our society is calling for urgent attention and way out looking at Christ expectation of church growth through the great commission, mandate and commands given to every Christian. Despite the population of Christian and methods which are currently available for the church of God to growth such as members of massive open and closed crusades, one to one evangelism, all kind of church programmes, social media and media houses. Lewis C. S. said that literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it, it enriches the necessary competences that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become

Hence, this observation led the researcher to think outside the box in the area of Christian publication, on how it can be broadly looked into, to complement other methods give corresponding growth to the church and expense the short coming of Christian publication.
