Didn’t read the fine print

I sure didn’t read the fine print. I didn’t realize I was getting an old edition and not the latest edition. Wasted my money.

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.
