Based on the existing statement that he knew God early in life, and also received the call of God. In 1983, he encountered the Lord while he was praying in his closet during the days of his medical practice. His encounter with the Lord led him to start a mini bible study group with some people with his environment. Dr. John Akpami was committed to this vision and he began to mature people in Christ through small group bible study.
The reward of good work is more responsibility. This small bible study grew such that in the year 1987, Dr. John Akpami established or pioneered a revival ministry in the North called Christian Teaching Centre Family Church. Recent update is that, Reverend John Akpami’s ministry which is Global Revival Gospel Ministries founded another named Global Revival Gospel Ministries.
