Christ is both example and strength as Wesleyans pursue integrity, excellence, faith, hope and love. Making disciples is a clear mandate from Christ. This requires a strong focus on evangelism and training in spiritual growth and holy living. Done effectively, this will produce and promote growth and health in and among the churches. The denomination exists to serve local congregations.
Local churches are the most fundamental and strategic points of evangelism and discipleship.
The challenge of the denomination is to keep finding the best ways to serve and strengthen congregations. Wesleyans respect leadership that is placed over them, while realizing that the authority and effectiveness of spiritual leadership is not primarily bestowed, but earned and manifested by a loving and willing heart of obedience that serves God and mankind gladly. Wesleyans desire to be leaders in serving. There is intrinsic value in every person. Unity becomes all the more important and beautiful in light of the wide ranges of difference in personality, culture, race, talents, and perspectives.
