Faithfulness to God's ideal for the church today, comes from remembering who we are as God's people our sinful past, and our successes that God has allowed us. Bremem First United Methodist Church was recently severely conflicted, but is resolving its conflict and growing. The challenge ahead is to internalize and institutionalize new forms of relating to each other and become fully a church that makes decisions in a collegial style. The interventions designed to bring this ideal, came to life from a model emphasizing adaptation and shared learning. A four-month sermon series and an accompanying Bible study emphasized the power of remembering. Other interventions include a revival using former pastors who remembered the church's spiritual journey during their pastorates. A naming of the new building designed to claim the best of the church's past and to repent of it's failings. A number of crises during these interventions gave leaders opportunities to practice new skills in open and respectful conversation.
