Description / Abstract
Church Member's Handbook: An easy-to-read guide to the Manual of the church of the Nazarene
The Church has an official book called The Manual of the Church of the Nazarene, but we usually just call it “the Manual.” It is a legal document, and many people find it difficult to read and understand, even some who speak English as their first language. This small book is an easy-to-read summary of the main points of the Manual, focusing on the parts that relate to the local church and district activities. It will show you what we Nazarenes believe, how we govern ourselves, and what our purpose is.
Based on the latest edition of the Manual, including revisions made at the 2023 General Assembly.
