What Does the Lord Require of You: Acts of Piety and Acts of Mercy – February 2, 2020

/in /by

Scripture: Micah 6: 1-8

He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

A balance of personal piety with acts of justice and mercy marks Methodism from its earliest days. From class meetings of old to the Walk to Emmaus currently, methods of accountability for our spiritual walk have been an important element of letting our light shine for the world. Many United Methodist churches today are reclaiming this heritage as paths of discipleship are laid out before us in tangible ways.
