WHAT WE BELIEVE...

John Wesley believed that the living core of the Christian faith was revealed in Scripture, illumined by tradition, brought to life by personal experience, and confirmed by reason.  This Wesleyan emphasis upon the Christian life—faith and love put into practice—has been the hallmark of those traditions now
   incorporated into The United Methodist Church. 

As United Methodists, we try to be faithful witnesses to Jesus Christ, who we believe is the center of the Church’s life and witness.  We profess the historic Christian faith in God, alive in Jesus Christ for our salvation
 and ever at work in human history in the Holy Spirit. 

We assert that God's grace is manifest in all creation even though suffering, violence, and evil are everywhere present. The goodness of creation is
 fulfilled in human beings, who are called to covenant partnership with God.
 God has endowed us with dignity and freedom and has summoned us to responsibility for our lives and the life of the world.

United Methodists respect the diversity of opinions held by conscientious
 persons of faith. Wesley followed a time-tested approach: “In essentials, unity;
 in non-essentials, liberty; and in all things, charity.”
