Pastor (Dr.) W.F. Kumuyi
A Math Professor is Called to Preach!
In 1973, while serving as a Math Lecturer at The University of Lagos, W.F. Kumuyi started a Bible study group with 15 university students who had come to him requesting training in the Scriptures. By the early 1980’s that small group had grown to several thousand, at which time Deeper Life Bible Church was formally established. The Church has since grown into millions of people with branches all over Africa, Europe, Asia, Middle East, and over 90 branches in the United States of America.
Pastor (Dr) W. F. Kumuyi preaches the Bible simply, faithfully, and with conviction. He calls sin as it is. He lifts Jesus up as Savior and Healer. He believes in real holiness, real transformation, and real revival. And he lives what he preaches.
Born in 1941 into a devout Anglican home, Pastor Kumuyi became born again in 1964 after hearing a clear gospel message. Influenced by the writings of Wesley, Finney, and Spurgeon, he grew rapidly in faith and began teaching others. Since then, he’s spent more than five decades calling people to salvation, holiness, and heaven.
As the General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor Kumuyi continues to lead with the same passion that began in that small Bible study: preach Christ, win the lost, and strengthen the church—until Jesus returns.
