"Celebrate the UMC" event in Montgomery


I've been telling everyone, whether in person or at discernment group meetings, that if your church is discerning whether to stay in the UMC, this is the absolute BEST video I have seen from a centrist point of view. The testimonies celebrate who we are, and Tom Berlin does an excellent job of summarizing what it would mean to stay in our denomination and move forward in history.

I understand those that might wish to become part of another denomination at this juncture, and I only offer blessings if that's where your convictions lead you. However, let us all choose peace and refrain from the kind of straw-man arguments and half-truths that Berlin addresses about 40 minutes into the video.
