I was raised in the United Methodist Church- and I have fond memories of Sunday School- but, what a shame that as I have gotten older I have realized that they don’t know the Bible at all.

If they did, they would understand what Paul said about the progressive-newage “Christian” movement.

I was invited to a children’s meditation meeting , at our local United Methodist Church. It is centering prayer New Age stuff. They believe it is to help them “focus” on God more.

*sigh* teaching that stuff to kids. It really made me sad.

Now, if all that “focus” only actually enlightened them about what God wants (the bible sure gives us a lot of clues).

Not all individual United Methodist congregations are that lukewarm, as the parent denomination allows a lot of leeway (which means leeway to be good as well as bad). And there are other non-affiliated Methodists, like Free Methodists, who are more serious.
