O knihe
In the Methodist lexicon, 'conference' refers to a body of preachers (and later, of laity as well) that exercises legislative, judicial, and executive functions forthe church or some portion thereof. 'Conference, ' says Richey, defined Methodism inmore than political ways: on conference hinged religious time, religious space, religious belonging, religious structure, even religiosity itself. Methodisthistories uniformly recognize, typically even feature, conference's centrality, butdescribe that in primarily constitutional and political terms. The purpose of thisvolume is to present conference as a distinctively American Methodist manner ofbeing the church, a multifaceted mode of spirituality, unity, mission, governance, and fraternity that American Methodists have lived and operated better than theyhave interpreted.
