Abstract

The author used this case study to answer the question: How can we use the judicatory guidelines and polity as tools to realign a United Methodist Church community in order to revitalize leadership, worship and ministry? The study documents the transformation of the church after using polity as theology to restore order; the distribution of selected sections of the Book of Discipline; worship changes involving children, youth and young adults; leadership training; and re-instituting outreach and ministry.
