The publishing arm of the Ministry took off shortly after the inception of the ministry with the publication of a Christian Photo Play Magazine titled “Amazing Grace Magazine”. It became the first Nigerian Christian Photo play magazine and the first published photoplay. Another was titled “Separated Forever” a three part play released consecutively in 1986, 1987 and 1988. The Mount Zion Faith Ministries supervised the production with the little printing knowledge of the President of the ministry, Evang. Mike Bamiloye. On the launching day of the Magazine on July 11th 1986, the Lord instructed the ministry to distribute the magazines free of charge. Consequently, all the subsequent productions too were given out and posted to people for free. It was entirely a work of faith.
PLAY BOOKS PUBLICATIONS
The next printing project embarked upon by the ministry was the printing of “The Unprofitable Servants” play. The quality was only fair as it was typed with manual typewriter. It was however reprinted later during the ministry’s first drama outreach tour to Kano in 1989. It now had a better typesetting and printing.
This publication of the Unprofitable Servant, we believed the Lord used to open the door for the publication of other playbooks of the ministry in Kano.
The published playbooks were
The Bride and the Devil

“DRAMA EXPLOITS” NEWSLETTERS
The idea to publish the Drama Exploits Newsletter came during the Mount Zion first drama outreaches in Kano in 1989. The great things the Lord used our drama to do in the churches of Kano, Jos, Zaria and Kaduna were so thrilling that we felt people needed to hear the testimonies. So the newsletter contained the news and reports of drama exploit in the cities visited with the drama in the Northern part of the country and later, the drama outreaches of Benin, Warri, and Effurun cities.
Subsequent editions that followed contained news from the Ministry and messages written by the President- Evang. Mike Bamiloye. A lot of testimonies followed each edition of the Magazines.
PRAYER OF FAITH BULLETIN
The publication of prayer of faith bulletin started in 1986. The aim of the publication was to mobilize prayer support for the country of Nigeria and the church of God as a whole. The ministry had to undergo searching for daily news on the current happenings from Newspapers and Journals, through which prayer points were compiled and sent out to the body of Christ. The publication stopped at the phase of mighty expansions in the ministry.
PUBLICATION OF MOUNT ZION CLASSICS
The vision of publishing Mount Zion Classics came during a fasting and prayer programme of the ministry in the year 2001. The Lord spoke during the programme that some brethren from the ministry would write books about their experiences in the ministry to be able to help other drama ministers in drama ministries. To this end, the Lord has helped us to publish the following books:

FRENCH MISSIONS DEPARTMENT
The burden to contribute to the Evangelisation of the French land led the Ministry to create a department to see to the translation of Mount Zion Films into French language. The first task before the personnels in this department was to translate the Mount Zion Films scripts into French after which the films shall be subtitled into French language. To this end, a French speaking personnel has been employed to assist us in these great evangelical project. The work has started in earnest and a number of Mount Zion Films scripts have been translated for printing into books and few Mount Zion Films have equally been subtitled.
THE MOUNT ZION HOTEL LITERATURE OUTREACH
The Mount Zion Live Drama Books were published many years back. But few years ago, the Lord impressed it heavily upon our heart to start publishing all our films in book form. We obeyed without knowing why the Lord instructed us to do so. Then, in the year 2001, the Lord opened our eyes to a vision of taking the books to hotels and arranging the sets of the books in a pack, so that each pack can be placed in each room of the hotels for hotel guests to read them and be blessed. It was a great vision that ignited our spirit and the ministry set at it immediately. So up till date, we have been able to reach the major Hotels in the cities of Ibadan, Lagos and Ile-Ife. The vision is like how Gideon Bibles are being distributed to Hotel Rooms.
The first step we took therefore was to produce small bookshelf for each of the hotel rooms. Then, letters were written to the hotels, sharing the vision, asking for their response. All of them welcomed the idea and they were supplied with the sets of books according to the number of rooms they have. The distribution continues, as we planned to reach many hotels in all the cities of Nigeria with the books.
Testimonies are already coming in to us as we receive phone calls from guests of the Hotels who have read the books and were blessed by them.
