What is a Christian?
Christians believe in the God who created and continues to be in the universe and Jesus is our window into God, showing us God’s nature, purposes and love for the world.
Christians believe that God in Jesus came to demonstrate God’s love for all people ......

What is a Methodist?
Methodism began as a movement for spiritual renewal, and a ‘methodical’ approach to spirituality and practical Christian living. Its principal founders were John and Charles Wesley who realised that the Christian life rests on what God has done for us through Jesus Christ, not on what we do for God. Methodist preaching was sent out to people untouched by the existing churches, often meeting outside a building, gathering local groups and creating a group of people who were committed to helping one another learn and grow as Christians.
