Excerpt from The Present State of the Methodist Episcopal Church: A Symposium
The articles brought together in this pamphlet aim to be plain talks to the Church on topics which concern its welfare. The writers, Whether ministers Or laymen, have given it long years of service, and may, on that ground at least, be entitled to Speak. As far as it has been granted them to see the truth they have tried to express the truth, yet always, they hope, in the right spirit. They are not responsible for one another's Opinions; each is responsible for What he has himself written, and no more. It will be seen, however, that the contributors Wholly agree in generals, though they may disagree in particulars. A free parliament was intended, and a free parliament this has been.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the challenges facing the Methodist Episcopal Church in order to understand its relevance in contemporary times. It contends that the Church, despite its greatness and its enormous impact on society, has neglected its key mission, i.e. that of saving souls. While modern society has progressed in many areas, the book argues, the Church has failed to keep pace and engage in a meaningful way with critical human needs. Instead, it has become preoccupied with ecclesiastical politics and matters of individual advancement rather than the proclamation of the Christian message. This has led to a decline in the influence of the Church and a loss of its sense of purpose.
