Friday Feb 10, 2023
Friday Feb 10, 2023
We know that some traditional Methodists will either be forced to or choose to remain in the UMC after 2023 for many different reasons. The biblical paradigm of the faithful remnant is a model for those who will stay. Rev. Brian Felker Jones from Indiana and Rev. Bob Zilhaver from Western Pennsylvania joined us to discuss why they plan to remain as evangelical pastors in the changing environment and culture in the United Methodist Church.
