Product Description
Comparing current membership figures in The United Methodist Church with those from forty years ago, it would be easy to conclude that the United Metodist "ice cube" is melthing. Any number of factors might account for this trend but almost every observer would agree that what Lyle Schaller calls the "contagious disease of intradenominational quarreling" has played a large role. Fascinating numbers and records -- Only by undergoing the hard work of gainin g agreement on whtat the real issues are that divide United Methodists, he says, will it be possible to hope for a way forward.
