You left out the Council of Bishops which meets regularly and oversees the work and positions of the denomination. They are a distinctly liberal bunch who routinely interfere in the activities of the local church.
No, I didn’t forget the Council of Bishops. It is not a body that can set or change the direction of the denomination. That can only be done by the 4 year General Conference. There is no presiding bishop, there is no authority regarding the law of the denomination, so they are free to do whatever they want despite any meetings of the council of bishops. It’s a slight bit more than a coffee-klatch, and a world less than a board of directors.
