For more than 200 years, Methodists have shared God's love with the world and relieve human suffering by offering healing, hope, and holiness everywhere. Serving Faithfully Amid the Tensions tells the story of these global efforts, beginning with John Stewart's ministry among the Wyandotte Nation in America, and what we as Methodists have learned about God's mission along the way. This book also describes how Global Ministries is living out these lessons of cooperation, humility, relationship, and practicing holistic mission that promotes personal, social, and cosmic transformation as we work and live amid the tensions that enrich and expand our awareness of Methodist identity in God's diverse world.
