Together in Love Covenant Discipleship With Youth By David C. Sutherland Together in Love provides a structured way for youth and college students to grow as accountable disciples of Jesus Christ. Because many lack experience and knowledge, understanding what it means to be a disciple of Christ may get confusing. Even if they are enthusiastic about Christ’s presence in their life, over the course of time, ways of the world may begin to seep back into them, causing confusion and disbelief. Many youth begin to question everything, including their faith and their faith commitment. Together in Love is designed to hold youth and college students accountable to each other and to Christ. After mutually agreeing to a covenant that includes acts of devotion, worship, compassion, and justice, youth meet regularly to start, maintain, and create new youth covenant discipleship groups; conducting group meetings; and sharing ideas and information.

In early Methodist history, the class meeting provided a vehicle for nurture and accountability for Christians seeking to grow as disciples. In 1988, the General Conference of The United Methodist Church restored class leaders and class meetings to the Book of Discipline after an absence of 50 years. Guide for Class Leaders provides direction for congregations attempting to recover the tradition of class leaders in a way that is relevant and meaningful to a 21st-century church. Whether the congregation has class leaders already in place or is just beginning to consider the possibility, this book is an essential resource that provides practical guidance on topics such as selecting and commissioning class leaders, creating a class leader council, and responsibilities of the class leader.
