What do United Methodists believe?
 

The United Methodist Church's members share beliefs with other Christian groups, including faith in God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Traditionally, we have emphasized the following:.

  • God will comfort, guide, and forgive us as we confess our sins, no matter who we are or what we have done. Serving others and Christian faith go hand in hand We find peace with God and spiritual fulfillment both in solitary moments of reflection and in a community of faith. Our Church is made up of people who share faith in Jesus Christ. We seek to make our private and our public actions congruent with our faith. We are a global movement of churches that's making a difference in the world.
