Popular Gospel Preacher and Founder, Celebration Church International (CCI), Apostle Emmanuel Iren, has made another bold statement in the new media age with the premiere of his new YouTube film, "Up Next: LOVE." The movie premiered at exactly 6:00 PM West African Time (WAT) on Tuesday, 7th October, 2025 on the Narrative Entertainment YouTube channel.
This launch is historic since "Up Next: LOVE" is Pst. Iren's first-ever feature-length film production produced and released only on YouTube. This strategic move to a straight-to-digital route ensures that the material is easily accessible and at no cost to his massive, global fan base, sidestepping the traditional pitfalls of theater distribution that his previous feature, "What About Us?", faced.
It is a co-production that speaks to Pst. Iren's commitment to cultivating and equipping creative artistry from within the church. He collaborated directly with a creator from within the CCI Abuja community to bring the story to life, showcasing the level of creative excellence being nurtured throughout the ministry's various campuses.
The core subject of the film is relevant and timely: Christian courtship and the intentional, Godly approach in finding and cultivating love. In the midst of a media landscape saturated with worldly and often opposing descriptions of romance, Pst. Iren's film offers a clean, high-quality, and available faith-driven perspective. He himself invited the public to view the premiere, offering a concise but powerful summary of the film's attraction: "For those of you that love love, can watch it."
By having the 6:00 PM evening time slot, Pst. Iren is placing the movie in a way that it will target the youth audience at the optimal hours when content is viewed. This media-first approach solidified his position as a innovative voice in modern ministry, harnessing every bit of available media sermons, music, and even professional films to advance an excellence culture of faith. The premiere of "Up Next: LOVE" is not just a movie debut; it's a bold declaration of the church's vision to positively mold and influence the digital culture of the younger generation. All of us wait for the 6:00 PM drop on the Narrative Entertainment YouTube channel now.
