ENTREPRENEURIAL DISPOSITION: AN IMPERATIVE FOR THE CONTEMPORARY NIGERIAN METHODISM

Raphael Akhijemen IDIALU, Ph.D
Abstract

This Paper examines the concept and some principles of entrepreneurial disposition as an imperative for the current Nigerian Methodism against the backdrop of the understanding of the nature of God and the practice of ministry in Methodist Church Nigeria. The Paper attempts to highlight some of the nagging conditions of the Church and how an entrepreneurial state of mind of both the clergy and the laity can be a panacea. Descriptive research methodology was adopted, and so, the data for the Paper were basically through bibliographic search and internet materials. The Paper identifies various strands of entrepreneurial attitude that can be applied in solving the current realities in Methodist Church Nigeria. The Paper strongly recommends that an enthusiastic entrepreneurial character is adopted by both the clergy and members for the Church to achieve her vision and mission.
