"I just did the benediction, blessed queer people at the festival—and then, I was in a trial."

We spoke with Korean Methodist Church pastor Rev. Lee Dong-Hwan about the challenges facing LGBTQ+ tolerance in the KMC. https://t.co/AIQnRdoIeI

Jenna DeWitt reflects on the journey that led her through evangelicalism and many other Christian traditions before leading her back to the #UMC.

"Every person God places in our path is a choice. How will we approach our neighbor? As an outsider? As someone who must prove themselves or put in their time? Or as a created being of sacred worth welcome into our world with arms wide open?"

📢 CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS! 📢

Our next edition will be about ~connectionalism~

The beautiful thing about Methodism is that we never have to do it alone!

How have you seen connectionalism work?
How would a liberative future for connectionalism look?

"If we’re breaking up, let it be for something; let us welcome this window of opportunity to allow Methodists with incompatible visions of holiness to go our separate ways."

Thank you to everyone who’s supported and written for us over the last few years!

The struggle for an inclusive Wesleyan faith is not easy, but it is holy work.

"Grateful for what brought you here
But not caged by it
Hammers to demolish
and to drive the tiny nail"

"if a #queer youth who met Jesus Christ in that new faith community and hears God’s call to ordained ministry is still forbidden from obeying that call in the #UMC...It’s ultimately no different from the Global Methodist congregation down the road."

"Maybe there’s something about walking with someone to the cross, knowing this is, in some sense, inevitable, and choosing to walk beside them anyway."

"What we need is a reworking, relearning, resourcement. A rehabilitation of holiness & a reincorporation of it into the larger church’s imagination"
