ABOUT US
Build Your Church, also known as BYC Academy is a Christian organisation focused on equipping Christians at the grassroot family level in the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ (Matthew 16:18; Galatians 2:14).
We uphold the Holy religion (1 Peter 1:15-16, Leviticus 20:26, Ephesisans 5:27) also known as “The way of holiness” (Isaiah 35:8, Acts 24:10-16).
Through supporting families, we are playing a part in building-up Christians (the bride) for the coming of Jesus Christ (the bridegroom) for His bethrothed. As in Ephesians 5:27, to be “…a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.”
BYC Academy is led by Mak Okay-Ikenegbu and our earnest desire is that every Christian as members of the body of Christ, would embrace a continually reformed life for themselves, their families and those in their circle of influence.

Our Mission
Our goal is to play a part in equipping Christians at the family grassroot level in the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Every member of the body of Christ belong to a family or household grassroot level. Therefore, our approach is centred around providing support at the family / household grassroot level, so that adults and children in Christian homes can be who God wants them to be. The support we provide takes various forms, but have a common theme of holiness which God has called all Christians to.
