dc.description.abstractIn an era when COVID-19 took over the world and physical-spiritual activities in church were curbed and shutdown, the social media revolution became a tool for the church in Nigeria. The use of social media platforms for religious activities sustained the interaction between the church and members. This paper analyzes the impact of social media on the lived religious practices of Dominion House International congregants. As a result, their online engagements and participation are the central themes. This will feature Online/Electronic-church activities such as online devotion, bible teaching, and online evangelism. The aim of the paper is to explain how these online platforms influence adherents’ religious practices and their lived experiences. The Dominion House International church social media platforms, especially, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Zoom were used for content analysis, while literature review corroborated the findings of the study. The result provides information on how the lived experiences of the adherents are strengthened through content shared on social media which either strengthens or reduces their level of religiosity.
