Christian Religion Knowledge refers to the study of Christianity, its beliefs, practices, history, and impact on society, aiming to foster understanding and spiritual growth. It also seeks to  inculcate in individuals how to become useful to  themselves, their community,  the nation and the entire human race devoid of insurgency, with  Jesus Christ as the prime mode.

For effective teaching to take place adequate considerations must be given to the teacher‟s skill, the learners‟ preparedness to learn, the teaching and learning environment, and the curriculum in addition to such external variables as government education policies, supervision/ monitoring exercise. These factors combine to give rise to effective teaching of any subject at whatever level of education. Effectiveness of Christian Religious Knowledge (CRK) teaching becomes very important when one considers the indispensable position of the discipline in human socio-cultural, economic, spiritual and moral development. This feat is acknowledged by Federal Republic of Nigeria (2004) which placed Religious Studies as one of the core subjects in Group A at the Senior Secondary level. This is probably because Religion goes a long way to determining individual behaviour and aspiration, which in turn determines not only developmental strides of the society but also its internal harmony.
