Foundations Of Our Faith And Calling

An account of the Bruderhof community’s faith and the scriptural basis for its members’ beliefs and practices.

From the New Testament onward, Christians have testified to their faith through the written word. In that tradition, the Bruderhof, an international, intentional Christian community movement, published Foundations of Our Faith and Calling in 2012. It is a public account of the community’s faith and practice and describes tenets and orders common to all Bruderhof communities. All members took part in drafting, revising, and eventually unanimously approving the text.
