- Synopsis
- Uncover transformative strategies derived from Wesleyan heritage.Today, many Methodists feel adrift and seek ways to revitalize their churches amid the challenges they face. They seek a “method” for their mission. Yet, sometimes to move forward, we must look back. And our Methodist heritage provides a “field guide” for forming faith and caring for our neighbors.Calling on Fire dives into key moments in Methodist history that can have practical, real-world impact today. It brings the Wesleyan Quadrilateral to life by giving churches a clear framework for effective ministry that connects Methodist history with present-day opportunities. The models it provides root us and give us strength, inviting us to travel outside our comfort zones and find people on the margins who are hurting and hungry for hope and good news—whether in online spaces, digital communities, or outside the church.The practical steps and aids in this resource are derived from field-based research and experience. The tools it offers can help churches that are struggling with decline, disaffiliation, and closures to spark personal and communal transformation through field preaching, micro-communities, social engagement, and leadership activation.
