The "Confessing Movement" is still active, and has had a positive impact on the denomination in many respects - just not in this "progressive" annual conference.
Check out their website to learn more: www.confessingumc.org . (I don't know how to create a link; sorry.)
I'm glad of that. It will take much work and dedication on their part to keep the UMC from going the way of the ELCA and others.
