What to Expect When You Visit About the Episcopal Church What is the nature of the doctrine and discipline of the Episcopal Church? The Episcopal Church teaches that morality is positive, rather than negative. It is rooted in Jesus' summary of the law: 'to love God with heart, mind and soul and to love ones neighbor as oneself." The focus of Christian morality is not on laws and restrictions but on free and mature response to God's love and in responsibility to our neighbors.
