Core Teachings Of The Christian Faith: The Word with Bishops Leah Gregory and Mike Lowry

Profoundly Christian, Distinctly Methodist outlines the theological distinctives of Methodism and how they inform faithful Christian discipleship. Barnett and Vickers present Methodist doctrine as rooted in Scripture, tradition, and the means of grace, arguing for a theology that is both historically grounded and practically lived. The book addresses core topics such as the authority of Scripture, the role of Christ, sanctification, and how Methodist practices foster spiritual growth. It is intended as an accessible guide for clergy and laity seeking doctrinal clarity and a robust Methodist identity. The authors emphasize the integration of doctrine and mission, urging readers to let theology shape faithful Christian action.

The Catechism of the Global Methodist Church provides an authoritative presentation of the denomination's teachings and practice, functioning as a teaching tool for clergy and laity. The annotated edition by David DeSilva adds scholarly commentary and explanatory notes to help readers understand doctrinal statements in historical and biblical context. The work covers key doctrines such as Scripture, the Trinity, salvation, sacraments, and Christian living, aiming to form disciples in Methodist faith and practice. It is used in the podcast series as a foundational resource to shape shared language and theological clarity in the Global Methodist Church. The annotations make the catechism more accessible for study groups, Sunday school classes, and clergy instruction.
