Survey data explores attitudes, opinions.

Nashville, TN (PRWEB) June 19, 2007 -- A new report from The United Methodist Church on the state of the church reveals that United Methodist core beliefs are clear, but a variety of attitudes and opinions exist about other issues. The first-of-a-kind effort gathers survey data, research, and essays from a cross-section of leaders to present a comprehensive overview of the denomination.

"With this collection of survey data, research reports, and views from United Methodist leaders, we want to prompt and support prayerful conversation in many congregations and other settings about the life of our church, as well as its future," said Bishop John Hopkins who is the Convener of the Connectional Table. "Christian conferencing is an historic and proven way for the church to seek clarity about God's call and our response."
