Description

In this synthesis of the prior volumes in the United Methodism and American Culture series, Richey and his colleagues challenge the caricature of Methodism as a nontheological tradition by teasing out the theological dimensions that are embedded in characteristic Methodist practices. Their articulation of the various implications of itinerancy, discipline, connectionalism, and catholicity will be central to all future considerations of Methodist ecclesiology. But just as important is the way in which they constantly move beyond description to challenge and provide resources for North American Methodists as we move into this new century.
