William F. Kumuyi

Der nigerianische Prediger und frühere Mathematikdozent (* 1941) gründete die Deeper Life Bible Church, die sich von Lagos aus zu einer der größten evangelikal-pfingstlichen Freikirchen Afrikas entwickelte. Er steht für weltweite Evangelisation, einen bescheidenen Lebensstil und eine rigorose Heiligungslehre, die seiner Bewegung wegen strenger Verhaltens- und Kleidungsregeln jedoch auch Kritik wegen Gesetzlichkeit einbrachte. Für Bibelleser fordern seine Auslegungen zu einer kompromisslosen persönlichen Nachfolge und geistlichen Disziplin jenseits materieller Wohlstandstheologien heraus.
