Methodism and other Low Church movements did provide a lot of impetus of the reforms we take for granted in the modern world for example, end of slavery. Like most of the Evangelical churches created at this time it was taken over by leftists.
The United Methodist Church over in the USA doesn’t seem very “evangelical” to me. They aren’t eager to bring guests to the covered dish dinners. It has its share of libs and Dems and seems to be the denomination with the most school teachers. Southern Baptists would fit the “evangelical” description better IMHO; however, there aren’t many liberals I know of who are Baptists.
Leftists cannot create, but they can destroy.
