Methodist Temple UMC

I’m finally starting to listen to these podcasts. I’ve been meaning to since they started but hopefully my New Years Resolution will help my focus and follow through. After two episodes I can honestly say they are better than I thought they would be. Having known Andy and Randy for many years, I had pretty high expectations. I like their approach with “Seeing Christ in others” as a major influence on both of their ministries. They both have always seemed rather genuine to me and I had met Randy many years before he followed his calling into ministry. They are following the John Wesley tradition of Practical Theology. John Wesley is considered to be the founder of the Methodist movement. These first podcasts tell about the Articles of the United Methodist Church. What is cool about Andy and Randy’s approach is that they don’t talk about these articles as being rules to follow so that one can be a good Methodist, but how learning of these articles can help one with their relationship with God and others. I find that much more practical than following rules simply because we are supposed to. Thanks to Andy and Randy for their time and effort and their concern for others.
