n 1767, two ministers from very different backgrounds met in Lancaster, Pa. One, Martin Boehm, was a short, uneducated Mennonite minister. The other, William Otterbein, was a tall, refined, well-educated German Reformed minister. They discovered that they shared a common experience of new birth in Christ, and they began working together. A movement formed.Out of this movement came the first denomination to be start in the United States. It was called the Church of the United Brethren in Christ. Today, United Brethren churches can be found in nearly 20 countries. In 2017, the denomination celebrated its 250th anniversary. All for Christ tells the story of the United Brethren church from 1981-2017. You'll read about the major issues which have confronted the church, overseas expansion, influential leaders, business meetings, new churches, missionaries, and controversies along the way. Although the focus is on the past nearly 40 years, All for Christ dips into earlier years, clear back to the beginning, to put contemporary events in a historical context.
