Apostle Anthony
Owusu-Banahene
Apostle. Shepherd. Founder and President of Potter’s Wheel School of Ministry. A seasoned apostolic leader whose ministry has shaped believers across continents for decades.
“Forming lives for the Kingdom, one believer at a time.”
A Life Formed in the Potter’s Hands
Apostle Anthony Owusu-Banahene is an apostolic leader, teacher, and pastor whose ministry has spanned decades and continents, shaping believers in the United Kingdom, Ghana, Europe, and North America through faithful teaching, pastoral care, and intercessory prayer.
From the earliest years of his ministry, Apostle Anthony carried a conviction that the church’s greatest need was not more programmes or platforms, but more believers genuinely formed in the character and calling of God. This conviction became the founding vision of Potter’s Wheel School of Ministry.
His teaching style is at once scholarly and deeply pastoral. He brings decades of biblical study and theological formation to the classroom, yet never loses the shepherd’s heart that makes every student feel known, valued, and prayed for. He does not teach from a distance. He teaches as a father who cares deeply about the formation of each person in his care.
Pastor Angelina, A Faithful Backbone
Standing alongside him in every aspect of the ministry is his wife, Pastor Angelina Owusu-Banahene. Her prayer life, her pastoral warmth, and her tireless support have been a cornerstone and backbone throughout the years of ministry. Those who know the Owusu-Banahene ministry know that it is truly a shared calling. Behind every cohort, every session, every student who is welcomed and prayed for, is the faithful intercession and steadfast strength of Pastor Angelina.
The Vision for PWSM
The name “Potter’s Wheel” reflects Apostle Anthony’s understanding of ministry formation. Drawing from Jeremiah 18, he sees the process of equipping believers as analogous to the potter’s work: patient, hands-on, iterative, and deeply personal. You cannot form a vessel from a distance. The potter’s hands are always on the clay.
This is why he teaches in person into many sessions. This is why prayer is part of the school’s DNA. This is why the cohort model matters, because formation requires relationship, and relationship requires time together.
His Apostolic Call
Apostle Anthony ministers with an apostolic grace that has been recognised by leaders and ministers across the body of Christ. His ministry builds foundations: in individuals, in communities, and in institutions. PWSM is itself an expression of that apostolic grace, a school built not for one generation but for many, with systems and structures designed to carry the ministry forward long after any single cohort has graduated.
He holds the vision of PWSM with both pastoral warmth and institutional intentionality. He wants the school to be excellent, credible, and structured, and he wants it to remain deeply spiritual, deeply relational, and deeply prayerful. In his own words: “The church most needs not more programmes, but more believers who are genuinely formed in the hands of God.”
