dc.description.abstractThis work lakes a critical work at leadership succession among Nigerian Pentecostal churches or the New Generation church. The biblical teaching of Jesus Christ on leadership in Matt 20 vs 20-28 ... is most of the time not followed in choosing a successor. This findings will therefore, postulate that, this is one of the main problem facing Nigerian churches which make some of the churches to lose focus of the assignment God has called them to do. The methods adopted in this paper arc historical, theological and analytical. The main objective of this work is to look at the servant-master leadership as described by Jesus Christ and the leadership style of the contemporary church lenders. This work focuses of the servant leadership style of Jesus Christ and the contemporary church lenders in Nigeria. There are some distinctive traits of Jesus Christ that every team leader call learn from. What are the challenges faced by the church leaders? What is servant Leadership? The paper concludes by saviour Jesus' teaching on leadership focuses on two examples from experiences common to His disciples; one is "lords it over them" and the second is "exercise authority." The findings of this work are that both models are still problem as natural styles of leadership in the contemporaneous Nigerian church; and as Jesus con dell/lied them, they should be discourage in all ramifications and replaced with servant leadership.en_US
