Charles Nieman is a pastor of the Abundant Living Faith Center in El Paso, Texas, USA, a non-denominational megachurch. His church was rated as the 31st fastest growing church and 41st in size in 2008 by Outreach Magazine.[1][2]
Charles Nieman was born and brought up in El Paso, Texas. While studying at the University of Texas in his early 20's he decided to become a preacher. He met his wife Rochelle there, too.[3] He was influenced by Tommy Barnett of the Phoenix First Assembly of God, whom he called his pastor.[4] Charles and Rochelle Nieman began preaching in 1977 to a congregation of just 20 people in a small railroad union hall in El Paso. Since then, their church has grown to over 23,000+ members.[5] The Niemans' message focuses on the abundant life that Jesus came to give.[6][7] Nieman is a regular speaker at Christian conferences.[8][9][10] Apart from public appearances, he has written several books and his work is available on iTunes podcasts.[11]
