I Once Called RCCG ‘Little Dog With The Big Name’ -Adeboye

General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, has recalled when he once referred to the church as the “little dog with the big name”.

Pastor Adeboye made the intriguing recall during a special thanksgiving service at the church’s international headquarters in Ebute-Metta, Lagos.

Recalling the circumstance of that derogatory appellation, he said it was while he was a lecturer at the University of Lagos, and had accompanied a friend on a research trip to collect soil samples near the Lagos coast.

“I saw the signboard and the ramshackle building.

“I referred to the church then as the ‘little dog with the big name.’ I wondered what was wrong with the people there, but I noticed they had peace,” he recalled.

But then, a real encounter with the minister awaited him, and manifested years later, during a period of personal difficulty, and he was invited to the same church he had once mocked.

“It is by the mercy of God that I am saved. Until today, I cannot understand how it happened other than mercy,” he testified.
