The Method of Our Mission: United Methodist Polity & Organization

This comprehensive guidebook provides a fresh understanding of United Methodism organization, offering a Wesleyan theological frame for understanding the denomination's beliefs, mission, practice, and governance structure.

Written specifically for required classes, this book connects denominational governance and organization to our beliefs as well as our mission, providing a clear understanding of our identity and purpose.

With an emphasis on connection, Warner addresses the estrangement between theology and institutional structures and practice, framing governance practices and organizational structure within a Wesleyan theology of connection.

This approach will assist current and future denominational leaders in understanding their practices of administration and participation in polity as a theological endeavor and key component of their ministries.

The updated text includes changes from the 2016 General Conference, making it an essential resource for anyone seeking to navigate the complex landscape of United Methodism.
