A fresh understanding of United Methodism organization. What we believe about God and God’s relation to the world shapes who we are and how we organize our church. The Method of Our Mission, especially written for United Methodist classes, uses a Wesleyan theological frame to help readers understand United Methodism’s principles and structure, and the relationship between our beliefs, mission, and practice. The book is arranged into four parts—United Methodist beliefs, mission, practice, and organization. This textbook has been updated with changes from the 2016 General Conference.
