No time like Advent to get back on Wesley’s horse! There’s been a great resurgence of actual scriptural Christianity in the UMC in the last decade, as the ‘60s and ‘70s social activists get older, fatter and turn into bishops where they can’t do direct harm to the believers in the pews. Check out Methodist Renewal Movement.

And have a great and blessed Christmas!

Hi Colonel and Eric,

Eric..I agree with the Colonel. I am a UMC ministry candidate and certified Lay Speaker. I have never had a congregation turn on me, or resent my presence when I have give a theologically (or socially for that matter) conservative sermon. There are many of us within the UMC working on turning it back to sound biblical princples. Come join us!

Thanks very much.
The UMC’s (and other Protestant) position on Israel is greatly troubling to me. It's one reason I haven't been to church for a while.
