Where Do We Go From Here, UMC?

Conversations between a local church pastor and denominational leaders about the challenges ahead as we live toward a United Methodist Church that is fully inclusive of our LGBTQ+ siblings. Despite the anti-gay policies that remain in our UMC Discipline, more and more of us continue to move forward with the work of full inclusion. Still, institutional barriers to change and the formation of a splintering denomination provide real challenge. So, as people committed to our grace-filled way of living the gospel, where do we go from here? Hosted by Rev. Molly Vetter - Sr. Pastor at Westwood United Methodist Church in Los Angeles, CA www.WhereDoWeGoUMC.com
