Welcome to Nurturing Entrepreneurial Mindsets! In this course, we’ll see how Methodism’s history of entrepreneurism has fueled innovative ministries. We will consider how gifts of wisdom, virtue, and vision came from Wesley’s ministerial failure in Savannah, Georgia. Lastly, we will discuss how that spirit of innovation can help us faithfully meet our current moment. As we reflect on how we can nurture entrepreneurial mindsets wherever we are called to serve, we pray your discussions around these questions may be beneficial for your ministry.

What happens when our entrepreneurial efforts fail? Beginning with John Wesley’s failed efforts in colonial Savannah, Georgia, this week’s lesson explores the wisdom God offers us through failure and the resources the Methodist tradition provides to help us absorb that wisdom. As schools of mission, our failures can equip us with the character, humility, boldness, and vision we need to faithfully pursue what God has called us to do.
