Embrace our shared United Methodist heritage and shape our collective future.
Experience the culmination of two centuries of unity and progress within The United Methodist Church. The Book of Discipline, our guiding document, serves as a testament to our past and a roadmap for our future.
This essential book outlines the law, doctrine, administration, organizational work, and procedures of The United Methodist Church. Each General Conference amends The Book of Discipline, and the actions of the General Conference are reflected in the quadrennial revision.
Freshly updated to reflect the latest General Conference actions, the new Discipline features a comprehensive list of bishops spanning from our early leaders, Thomas Coke and Francis Asbury to the 2024 episcopal elections. Additionally, it includes a revised historical statement, an expanded index, and is divided into six informative sections:
The Constitution
General Book of Discipline
Doctrinal Standards and Our Theological Task
The Ministry of All Christians
Social Principles
Organization and Administration
