May 5th, 2024 - ”A Principled People: The Political Community” - Rev. Dr. T. Ray Wheeler

Micah 6:6-8 (CEB), Luke 6:31

What does the Lord require of the political community and the aspirations of the United Methodist Church? Micah 6:8 is an excellent summary of these detailed and subtle political statements in the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church. We generally try to avoid “being political“ in the religious community; however, these statements are concerned with addressing public justice and not partisan politics. Our heritage calls us to both private and social holiness.
