Missio Dei and the United States (Study Guide)

Toward a Faithful United Methodist Witness  

Edited by Global Board of Higher Education and Ministry
Paperback

Join the movement and go make disciples in an ever-changing world.

Suitable for a six- to eight-week study, the resource will help you take stock of our Wesleyan heritage and ask how we can best participate in God's mission for the church. Its premise is that the mission field is ripe for a vital United Methodist witness here and now.

John Wesley advised his followers to "Go always, not only to those who want [need] you." As we discern God's leading, we must also heed God's call to "Go!" This is the heart of who we are as members of the Body of Christ.

We in the United States continue to experience changes that are increasingly rapid and drastic. Yet as Christians, we believe that God is at work in ways that are obvious and mysterious, to reconcile, redeem, save, and recreate humanity along with all creation. Through grace, we must heed the call and take up our purpose to participate in God's salvific mission.
