Toward accurate interpretation of the PCUSA's positions, central convictions

FYI - In the interest of providing material(s) toward assisting those seeking to interpret accurately particular positions from central convictions of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in matters of faith and life, the Office of Theology and Worship has made the following resource available.


The Church’s One Foundation is Jesus Christ Her Lord

Prepared by the Office of Theology and Worship, General Assembly Council

The New Wineskins Association of Churches has raised significant questions about the faith and mission of the church that every Presbyterian should take seriously. NWAC has presented its case in "A Time for Every Purpose Under Heaven: Report of the Strategy Team of the New Wineskins Association of Churches." Unfortunately, in advancing their case New Wineskins has presented the positions of the PC(USA) inaccurately. As they consider the analysis of NWAC, all Presbyterians deserve to know the defined positions of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). Download this report. This is an Adobe Acrobat pdf document.
