Abstract: TChristian Scholars in the effective teaching of economics in the universities in Nasarawa State, Nigeria. The study employed the survey research design and primary method of data collection using structured questionnaires with three sections which include the bio data, questions on the knowledge of the subject matter, and questions on the scholar's professionalism. The population of the study is the economics students of the private and public universities in Nasarawa State and the sample size was determined using the mean value simple technique which allows the researcher to arrive at a given sample when the total population is unknown, thus the mean value simple technique is stated as Where Z = the z statistic (or value) corresponding to the desired confidence level (2.58), a pre-determined value of the population standard deviation (0.8), and e = the maximum acceptable margin of error (0.1). Therefore, the sample size was estimated at 420, and however, the total of well-filled questionnaires through google forms is 270. The study applied the one-way T-test approach to analyse the responses from the questionnaires and from the findings it was revealed that Christian scholars play a great role in the effective teaching of economics and that the professionalism of the Christian scholar is high and it enhances the effective teaching of economics in the universities in Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Therefore, the study recommended that Christian bodies like ECWA should encourage more Christians to teach and lecture to improve the quality of economic policies and economic development in Nigeria.
