In Three Simple Rules, Rueben Job offers an interpretation of John Wesley’s General Rules for today’s readers. This simple but challenging look at three commands, do no harm, do good, stay in love with God, calls us to mutual respect, unity, and a deeper relationship with God. This insightful work is designed for individual reading or group study.

Every year I review the three general rules of the United Methodist Church with those who are being ordained. Now I have a wonderful ordination gift to give them in Bishop Job’s, Three Simple Rules, to start and deepen the conversation as they enter a new relationship with the church. Bishop Job has described by attending upon all the ordinances of God to be to stay in love with God. It’s a fresh language that speaks especially to long-time Christians and United Methodists.

Three Simple Rules is a new catechism for everyone wanting to follow Jesus Christ. These practices for holy living should replace the membership vows in every church! Don’t let the title fool you. Bishop Job writes, ‘The rules are simple, but the way is not easy. Only those with great courage will attempt it, and only those with great faith will be able to walk this exciting and demanding way.’ John Hopkins, Resident Bishop, East Ohio Area
