The first volume in the T&T Clark Companions series, this volume is a handbook on Methodism containing an introduction, dictionary of key terms, and concentrates on key themes, methodology and research problems for those interested in studying the origins and development of the history and theology of world Methodism. The literature describing the history and development of Methodism has been growing as scholars and general readers have become aware of its importance as a world church with approximately 40 million members in 300 Methodist denominations in 140 nations. The tercentenary celebrations of the births of its founders, John and Charles Wesley, in 2003 and 2007 provided an additional focus on the evolution of the movement which became a church. This book researches questions, problems, and resources for further study.

The expansion of the missionary movement into Africa was part of the growing conception of Christian responsibility for the regeneration of African people. As part of the growing concept, missionaries established many churches in Africa which Methodist Church was among. The faith of Methodism spread to different part of the continent (Africa) and came to Nigeria in 1842 with the arrival of the Wesleyan Methodist Church Missionary. Since 1842, when Methodist Church came to Nigeria, it has spread to many areas of this country. It has created much influence in many areas and the church has contributed immensely in shaping the history of Adadia in Uruan Local Government Area in a significant way. Analytically, the Methodist Church in Adadia since it's establishment had developmental impact in the area which includes; founding of Schools, Health Center for medical assistant and services, as well as spreading spiritual holiness and abolishing some evil practices like killing of twin.
