2008 United Methodist Book of Discipline

This book was in perfect shape and came in a very short period of time. I was pleased with the personal attention to the customer as the seller inserted a thank you letter, with contact information.

A must have for Christians

This is the most amazing Christian religious doctrinal book that I've ever read. The interpretations on our place in and among society are more wise than anything written since the Bible, in my opinion. Would that we as a denomination followed this book completely! Still, it's the ultimate in answering the question "what does my faith stand for." That is, if you're a member of the United Methodist Church.

5 STAR REVIEW

This is a fascinating text book that ought to be studied by every Methodist Christian. This updated 2000 edition provides some keen insights and brings our church as a whole up to date.

A definitive view of The United Methodist Church

The 2000 Book of Discipline presents the belief system and organizational structure of the third largest Christian denomination in the USA. It is a book for study and reference. Unfortunately has no pictures to liven up the text. Rewritten every four years by the top decision making body of the church, The Discipline reveals all the secrets of a large religious body. As the title implies, it takes some discipline to stay focused on the tightly written presentations. Get the truth on the Methodists - I read the Discipline daily in conjunction with reading the Bible and my journey of faith is enlivened.
