  • - A Faith That Matters
    by Scott J. Jones
    £13.99

    In this exciting and inspiring new study, Scott J. Jones helps seekers and believers to envision and practice discipleship as a way of life. Presenting Christianity from a Wesleyan perspective, Jones invites participants into a deeper, more thoughtful, more active commitment to Christ. This 8-session study helps participants focus on how, through discipleship with Jesus Christ, we become part of God's work in transforming the world. Each week a different presenter shares their personal faith experience. Presenter include Adam Hamilton, Olu Brown, Felicia Hopkins, Jessica Moffat Seay, Jorge Acevedo, Rob Fuquay and author Scott Jones. Mini-videos conclude each week with an interview or ministry story from the presenter's home church. Participants then read on their own from the student book and the Bible and then once a week the group comes together to explore what they've read and to view another video.

    Jones argues that several unique factors remain available to The UnitedMethodist Church today from the period of rapid growth between 1800 and1840. Drawing on the image of Loren Mead's Once and Future Church and Moises Naim's analysis in The End of Power,Jones argues that a viable future for United Methodism is to recapturethe dynamism of being a movement, with many of the characteristics ofearly 19th century Methodism coming to the fore. It will draw on threekey works about Methodism in the first half of the 19th century: NathanHatch's Democratization of American Christianity, John Wigger's Taking Heaven by Storm, and Gregory Schneider's The Way of the Cross Leads Home.The book talks about how the Wesleyan form of church contains importantresources for the future of Christianity. It focuses on the UnitedStates and the first half is broadly applicable to all denominations inthe Wesleyan tradition. The last half of the book discusses obstaclesthat are currently preventing the United Methodist Church from achievingits potential. It closes with a hopeful vision of what a renewed UnitedMethodism might look like.
