Remembering Our Baptism: Discipleship and Mission in the Wesleyan Spirit

by Philip R. Meadows

Drawing on the roots of early Methodists, Philip Meadows urges readers to use the act of "remembering their baptism" to connect themselves to their own discipleship and mission. This will result in the daily shaping of their Christian lives by personal and corporate spiritual discipline, which is itself decidedly baptismal in character. When church communities of every size remember their baptism, they hold one another accountable for the life of disciplined discipleship and everyday witness. A great resource for small group study and clergy.

Really good content, with a message of invigoration for God's people. However, the writing/organization is incredibly repetitious in many chapters. The book could be 60-70 pages shorter and just as effective if not more so. Read this for a study in my church, and we've had lots of good conversation, but many of us found the circling back over and over the same point to be bothersome.

Meadows makes a great point that salvation is for a purpose. Discipleship and mission are intimately intertwined, from the Great Commission through to today. Faithful and faith-filled Christians must live out that link within the Church.
