In 2008, the United Methodist Church lifted up "Four Areas of Focus" for ministry, and churches have responded.

Engaging in Ministry with the Poor Improving Global Health Developing Principled Christian Leaders Creating New and Renewed Congregations The work has led to a host of creative ministries and organic growth...because they were meeting the needs of their community and their world as the hands and feet of Christ. The book comes with a built-in facilitator Guide to encourage pastor peer groups and other leadership groups interested in deepening the discussion. |
