A Firm Foundation : Hope and Vision for a New Methodist Future EPUB

This carefully curated volume engages the deep-heart questions of United Methodists

and casts a compelling vision for what comes next. Contributors explore the power of

classic ideas such as:

+ The lordship of Jesus Christ

+ The authority of Scripture

+ The power of the Holy Spirit

+ The promise of sanctification

+ The anchor of purpose

+ The dynamic of discipleship

+ The gift of the global church

This resource is a useful tool not only in navigating present challenges but in pursuing

the future promise for the people called Methodist. The foundational principles that

have guided Methodist thought from the beginning of John Wesley’s countercultural

movement remain rich resources for us today. Join with a small group of folks and

explore what it means to remain faithful disciples in the theological tradition of

historic Methodism in our day and time.

Each chapter concludes with thoughtful questions to challenge individual readers.

The companion videos will help to host discussion sessions and create meaningful

conversations. Let’s gather around the insights, questions, and principles that will help

guide our thinking and renew our hearts in this rich season in the life of our church.
