Attended #NadiaBolzWeber ’s #RedStateRevival last night & had a fantastic time. Not only was her message what I needed to hear, I loved seeing a line around the block to get into a mainline (#UnitedMethodistChurch ) church. If you have the opportunity to attend one of these events, I highly recommend it!
I recently heard the opinion expressed that the #UnitedMethodistChurch should not be involved in any action or advocacy to address the #ClimateCrisis because “the science is not settled” and because “it has nothing to do with bringing people to Christ.” (Living in #Oklahoma, I hear this a lot.) Given that the person who expressed this sentiment did not give me a chance to respond, here is my response:

#Clarksburg #pastor #speaks after #UnitedMethodistChurch removes #restrictions on #LGBTQ #community.
The decision passed 523 to 161 and came among other similar #decisions by #leaders which included the #removal of a #ban on the #ordination of #homosexual #clergy and to #allow #clergy to #perform #samesexweddings.
What's Good News about having a bishop, district superintendent, and Book of Discipline? And how have they borne fruit?
The #UnitedMethodistChurch lifted its ban on the ordination and marriage of #LGBTQ people this week. As someone who left the ordination track of the #UMC 25 years ago, I have mixed feelings.
Grief - For all the LGBTQ people who were shat on for the 50+ years it took to repeal the ban.
Relief - That finally the struggle for inclusion has taken a step forward.
Dissatisfaction - While the UMC is no longer anti-gay, it has yet to become welcoming. It's too little, too late for me.
#UnitedMethodistChurch lifts 40-year #ban on #LGBTQ #clergy, SameSexMarraige.
The move marks a #historicshift in the #church’s #stance on #homosexuality. "We no longer consider #being #gay as a #sin"
#UnitedMethodistChurch ends #ban on #LGBTQ+ #clergy in #historic #vote.
Delegates at the #GeneralConference voted 692-51 to #remove the #ban in a #noncontroversial #vote.
#UnitedMethodistChurch lifts 40-year #ban on #LGBTQ+ #clergy, #samesexmarriage. ‘We no longer say #being #gay is a #sin’
The #UMC #GeneralConference in #NorthCarolina with a #historic 692-51 #vote #repealed their #ban on #LGBTQ #clergy and on #UMC #pastors #officiating at #samesexweddings.
Most opposition to #LGBTQ+ #rights in the #UnitedStates still emanates from #Christian #pulpits.

#UnitedMethodists Endorse #Change Giving #Regions More #Say on #LGBTQ and Other #Issues.
Delegates voted 586-164 on Thursday for the “#regionalization” #proposal on the third day of their 11-day #GeneralConference, the #legislative #body of the #UnitedMethodistChurch, meeting in #Charlotte, #NorthCarolina.

#UnitedMethodists will again #debate #LGBTQ #clergy and #supporting #samesexmarriage.
The departure of the most #hateful #congregations and #clergy from the #UnitedMethodistChurch to the #GlobalMethodistChurch means there's a better chance than before that the #rules around #samesexmarriage and #LGBTQ #clergy could change.
