"We must once again contend for the apostolic faith of the one, holy, universal and apostolic Church. This renewing work must be built only upon the foundation of our unity in the truth that is made known in Jesus Christ. It is now time for repentance, courage and action. The renewal, reform and healing of our churches only can come through the life-giving power of the Holy Spirit."

RECLAIMING THE WESLEYAN SOCIAL WITNESS: OFFERING CHRIST
For United Methodists who are thinking anew about what it means to live “The United Methodist Way,” an important new book will be a helpful resource for clergy and laity alike to rediscover the heart of the Wesleyan message—the message that had such a transforming impact on England and the world.
Reclaiming the Wesleyan Social Witness: Offering Christ, by Mrs. L. Faye Short, president of Good News’ RENEW Network for women and Mrs. Katy Kiser, laywoman from Carrollton, Texas, and member of the RENEW Steering Committee, has just been released by Providence House Publishers, in Franklin, Tennessee.  

 

Taking Back UMCTAKING BACK THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
by Mark Tooley,
"United Methodism is important not because of its potential political significance but because of its spiritual significance, to the global body of Christ, to America, and the world."

If you want to understand the controversies that have rocked what was once the largest denomination in the United States, this is a must read. Mark Tooley tells a story he has lived. Disillusioned by the left-wing beaurocrats, he has pursued a life calling to the reformation of the church he loves. It is also a story of hope for a church whose soul is still in the balance.  Published by Bristol House Ltd       To Order: http://www.bristolhouseltd.com

by Parker Williamson, former Exec. Dir. of the Presbyterian Layman

The denomination has abandoned its constitutive commitment to Christian faith and ethics, thereby forfeiting its claim to be called the Church of Jesus Christ.
