The "Equipping the Future Church" book series is designed to offer reflection on the future identity and ministry of The United Methodist Church. The books in this series help nurture faith, build Christian community, and equip people for ministry in daily life. The Phillipses describe a crisis in United Methodist identity and ministry, contending that United Methodists must recover their ritual. Using five scriptural models to help us understand the meaning and purpose of the church at worship, the authors address our Wesleyan tradition and propose an approach to worship that connects local congregations to the universal church through the United Methodist ritual.Sara Webb Phillips is the author of 'In Spirit & Truth: United Methodist Worship for the Emerging Church (Equipping the Future Church)' with ISBN 9780881772784 and ISBN 088177278X.
