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 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 bureaucrats, 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
