Newsone Nigeria reports that the Experience 2025 is a massive, annual, free gospel music concert held in Lagos, Nigeria, at Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) on December 5, 2025, marking its 20th milestone edition with themes of worship, praise, and spiritual connection, featuring international and local gospel stars, with transport authorities extending services for the huge crowd.
The 20th Edition of The Experience, with the theme “Jesus United”, draws global attention as it marks two decades of undisrupted worship, prayer, and musical excellence.
Speaking at a press conference earlier today, the Convener and Senior Pastor of House on the Rock, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, addressed national development, Christmas, and Nigeria’s recent designation by the US President as a “state of particular concern.”
He called on the nation’s wealthy to contribute more intentionally to infrastructural and social progress, stating; “So the rich in the country, the wealthy, the wealthy thieves all have to learn to come back with wealth and put that into infrastructure, education, schools, hospitals, and energy. We need energy to industrialize.“
On the subject of Christmas, he emphasized its spiritual significance and the Christian understanding of Christ’s incarnation.
He said, “I agree with the Jehovah Witnesses that this was not the day Jesus was born, but by convention we accept celebrating it together because as Christians every day it’s supposed to be Christ mass. We’re conscious of him, we offer service to us him, we worship him, and we celebrate that God came.
“He took on the incarnation, lived a perfect life, and then nailed to the cross he bore the price for all my sins, original sin, historic sin, ancestral sin, personal history sin, present struggle, and any future struggle that I have. He died to pay that price so that I could have consistent access to him and be great friends with my father in glory. Jesus did that.
“Hey, Jesus came, he lived perfectly, he modeled the life that you are supposed to live, God in man, Christ in you, the hope of glory, so that when he went to the cross he could take the Christos from within him and put that in you so you could be just like him.
“That’s called the manifestation of the sons of God. If you look at Christmas like that, it’s when we celebrate what he did through his incarnation, his life, his death, his burial, his resurrection, and his ascension, which gave the heavens permission to release the Holy Ghost, the Holy God, God the Holy Spirit, to live in man that believes upon the cross of Calvary. Merry Christmas.”
