Our mission is to make, mature, mobilize followers of Christ [Matt 28:19 – 20]

Our obedience to the Great Commission of Jesus (Matthew 28.19) is expressed in the Mission of the church to make, mature and mobilize followers of Jesus Christ.

• In making, the Church seeks to provide the opportunity for all in its sphere of influence, but especially those from the city and surrounding area of Lagos, to know God through faith in Christ Jesus.

• In maturing, we want those who come in faith to mature and be lifelong disciples of Christ, reflecting increased Christlikeness conduct and understanding.

• In mobilizing, we want disciples of Jesus to be released into their gifts and calling and engage our community and world with the Gospel of Jesus.

Taiye Michael Arimoro

Pastor

Taiye Michael Arimoro presently serves as an Elder at Crown Reformed Assembly in Lagos, Nigeria. Born in Kontagora, Niger State, Nigeria, he holds a B.Sc. in Engineering. He spent 17 years within the Word of Faith movement, during which he obtained a Diploma and Bachelor’s degree in Theology, as well as an accredited Certificate in Leadership from the Haggai Leadership Training Institute, Singapore.

While in the Netherlands in 2006, Pastor Taiye underwent a significant theological reformation as he was brought to see and turn away from the errors and excesses of the Word of Faith movement. Through a renewed study of Scripture and an encounter with the historic doctrines of grace, he embraced Reformed theology and has since remained committed to the authority of Scripture, the doctrines of grace, and the historic Reformed faith.

A servant of Jesus Christ and zealous for the truth of the gospel, Pastor Taiye is passionate about the spiritual health and theological maturity of the Church. Since his reformation, he has devoted himself to encouraging, teaching, and equipping God’s people through faithful ministry and service.

Pastor Taiye and his wife, Toun, live in Lagos with their two children.

Our Story

How We Got Started

Crown Reformed Assembly (aka Crown Bible Church) started in the year 2001 under the leadership of Yomi Adegboye. We started out as a small assembly, fully steeped in the Pentecostal / Word Of Faith Movement for several years during which we have changed our identity multiple times.

God in his sovereign mercy began bringing to light the discrepancies within the word of faith doctrine to the presbytery at the time which led to a public recant of all previous teachings from the pulpit and a deep thirst for the true interpretation of scripture.

God in his sovereign mercy would further see us through multiple storms over the course of the years opening our eyes to the true gospel embodied in sacred scripture and beautifully explained via the doctrine of the reformers.

Today Crown Bible Church is still a small church with our LORD JESUS as the head and pastor Taiye Arimoro and Pastor Enyinna Okorafor in charge of the presbytery
