Just a reminder that the Judicial Council of the UMC begins meeting tomorrow, and much will be decided by that group--perhaps including the future of the UMC as we know it. The Council itself will rule on the constitutionality of many portions of the Traditional Plan passed at the special session of General Conference. The rulings will set the stage for "next steps."
I will be monitoring the rulings as they are announced and will report as I see them.
I encourage you to go to www.umc.org to see for yourself news and commentary around these matters.
The amblings, opinions and experiences of a workaday, garden-variety pastor that, I hope, will give insight into the world of scripture and the life of faith. The first posts below related to the 2019 special session of the United Methodist General Conference (2/23 - 2/26); newer posts comprise sermons, sermon notes, thoughts-at-large, reflections. Thanks for reading, and feel free to comment.
