In Three Simple Rules , Rueben Job offers an interpretation of John Wesley's General Rules for today's readers. For individual reading or group study, this insightful work calls us to mutual respect, unity and a deeper daily relationship with God. 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. 'œEvery 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 'œby attending upon all the ordinances of God' to be to 'œstay in love with God.' It's a fresh language that speaks especially to long-time Christians and United Methodists.' Sally Dyck, Resident Bishop, Minnesota Area'œ 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.''
