Notes

“Providing that Methodist doctrine is adhered to and not contravened in anything done in an act of worship, there is no pressure to conform in any way.…Methodists are free to be liturgical and sacramental and equally free not to be so.” William Davies, “Reflections on Trends in Methodist Worship,” Epworth Review 29, no. 1 (January 2002): 66.
