Welcome to “Many Voices, One Faith,” a forum for sharing theological perspectives on topics of interest in The United Methodist Church. We are a global community rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, yet diverse in views and experiences. This forum is designed to put the voices of the church in conversation with one another and build understanding of what it means to be United Methodist today.

Every commentary represents a faithfully expressed viewpoint. New commentaries and topics are being added regularly. Check out current topics, and share your thoughts.
