Q&A: How are Changes Made to the Nazarene Manual?
Changes are made in the Manual every four years at the General Assembly where district elected delegates discuss and evaluate resolutions that have been submitted to the general secretary’s office from districts and other groups. This is outlined in Manual par. 902.7. No resolutions are submitted by one individual alone. Resolutions typically address perceived needs and ways to improve the work of the church. They may clarify existing paragraphs or offer new ideas and procedures.
