Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has consistently demonstrated his commitment to nurturing young talents in Christ Embassy’s creative industry.

A recent publication by The Diadem, “The Choir Girl’s Dilemma”,
highlights a thought-provoking issue that resonates with Pastor Chris Oyakhilome’s vision for promoting gospel talents.
Notably, a talented church choir girl, unable to secure support from her church to develop and showcase her creative abilities,
was forced to seek opportunities elsewhere.
Consequently, her music genre shifted from gospel to what her church deemed “secular”, leading to condemnation from her church community.
Pastor Chris’s generous support for young creatives is a trailblazing gesture that deserves emulation by other churches.
The creative industry is experiencing unprecedented growth and global recognition.
With the right support and platform, we believe that more talented individuals will be empowered to channel their energy into making a profoundly positive impact.
The creative arts, whether expressed through music or drama, have a profound impact on people’s lives.
