This Fresh Expressions course is designed for church leaders who want to learn new skills for being the Body of Christ in the 21st century. The two-week course will explore what it means to form new faith expressions in the places where people already are, dive into the scriptural connections of the Fresh Expressions movement, and plan how to begin a Fresh Expression.
From the beginnings of the Wesleys’ movement, Methodists have focused on advocating and doing justice and mercy in public life as well as in personal holiness. But times and social settings change, so how do United Methodists in the 21st century obey Micah 6:8: “What does the Lord require of you but to do justice and love kindness and walk humbly with your God?” Justice and Kindness: Social Principles of the United Methodist Church surveys the new statement of social principles adopted by General Conference 2020/2024. This course will help participants understand and apply this little-known but powerful teaching document in personal, congregational and public contexts, while engaging respectfully with persons of different perspectives.
