  • The Korean-American Methodists' Response to the UMC Debate Over
    religions Article Loving My New Neighbor: The Korean-American Methodists’ Response to the UMC Debate over LGBTQ Individuals in Everyday Life Jeyoul Choi Department of Religion, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611, USA; [email protected] Abstract: The recent nationwide debate of American Protestant churches over the ordination and consecration of LGBTQ clergymen and laypeople has been largely divisive and destructive. While a few studies have paid attention to individual efforts of congregations to negotiate the heated conflicts as their contribution to the denominational debate, no studies have recounted how post-1965 immigrants, often deemed as “ethnic enclaves apart from larger American society”, respond to this religious issue. Drawing on an ethnographic study of a first-generation Korean Methodist church in the Tampa Bay area, Florida, this article attempts to fill this gap in the literature. In brief, I argue that the Tampa Korean-American Methodists’ continual exposure to the Methodist Church’s larger denominational homosexuality debate and their personal relationships with gay and lesbian friends in everyday life together work to facilitate their gradual tolerance toward sexual minorities as a sign of their accommodation of individualistic and democratic values of American society. Keywords: homosexuality and LGBTQ people; United Methodist Church; post-1965 immigrants; Korean-American evangelicals Citation: Choi, Jeyoul. 2021. Loving My New Neighbor: The Korean-American Methodists’ Response to the UMC Debate over 1. Introduction LGBTQ Individuals in Everyday Life. The discourses of homosexuality and LGBTQ individuals in American Protestantism Religions 12: 561. https://doi.org/ are polarized by the research that enunciates each denomination’s theological stance 10.3390/rel12080561 and conflicts over the case studies of individual sexual minorities’ struggle within their congregations.

  • Tuscola United Methodist Church 901 N
    TUSCOLA UNITED METHODIST CHURCH 901 N. Prairie The first society of the Methodist Church in Tuscola was organized in May of 1858, at the home of A. G. Wallace, with the following charter members: Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Wallace, Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Woody, Mr. and Mrs. Prose and daughter, Mary. Rev. Amos Garner was the pastor. With the need for a permanent place of worship, ground was broken and the first building dedicated on September 10, 1865, at the corner of Niles and Sale Streets. With the increasing membership, the building had to grow, and the building located at the same address was dedicated on November 24, 1895. On Mother’s Day, May 13, 2001, the present Tuscola United Methodist Church was dedicated at 901 N. Prairie Street. Their vision is threefold: Make disciples of Jesus Christ, Engage in Ministry and Transform the world. PASTORS OF TUSCOLA UNITED METHODIST CHURCH 1858 A. R. Garner 1883 G. W.

  • Two Separate Unions Formed One United Church by David Oberlin, 1979
    Two Separate Unions Formed One United Church by David Oberlin, 1979 The United Methodist Church is the product of two recent church mergers – one in 1946, which brought the Evangelical and United Brethren in Christ denominations together to form the Evangelical United Brethren Church (hereafter called the EUB Church); and one in 1968, which combined the EUB and Methodist denominations to form the United Methodist Church. Each merger created a new denomination, altered church organization, and had an impact on its membership. This paper examines these two mergers and their impact on members of affected congregations in Union County, Pennsylvania. Located in a rural setting in central Pennsylvania, Union County includes many small communities and two major towns – Lewisburg with almost 9,000 residents, and Mifflinburg with a population close to 7,000. Within the county are 17 United Methodist churches – three of which are former Methodist, and fourteen of which are former EUB. While the United Brethren in Christ Church was active in central Pennsylvania, all of the former EUB congregations in Union County were originally Evangelical. Each of the former Methodist congregations has its own pastor, and ten of the fourteen former EUB congregations make up three circuits within the county. Because there were no United Brethren in Christ churches in Union County, the 1946 merger did not have much of an impact on the congregations of the county. The 1968 merger, on the other hand, had a large impact in Union County because EUB and Methodist churches were located throughout the county. In Mifflinburg and Lewisburg, for example, the 1968 merger resulted in two United Methodist churches located within a block of each other.

  • Homosexuality and the United Methodist Church a Brief History Lesson
    3/8/2018 Homosexuality and The United Methodist Church A Brief History Lesson The Social Principles (Adopted in 1972, General Conference in Atlanta, Georgia) The Social Principles, while not to be considered church law, are a prayerful and thoughtful effort on the part of the General Conference to speak to the human issues in the contemporary world from a sound biblical and theological foundation as historically demonstrated in United Methodist traditions. They are a call to faithfulness and are intended to be instructive and persuasive in the best of the prophetic spirit. The Social Principles are a call to all members of The United Methodist Church to a prayerful, studied dialogue of faith and practice. 1 3/8/2018 • 1972 – “We do not condone the practice of homosexuality and consider it incompatible with Christian teaching” & “We do not recommend marriage between two persons of the same sex.” • 1976 – add 3 statements banning the use of church funds to promote homosexuality • 1980 – 1972 and 1976 positions were left intact. • 1984 – Adopted as the standard for ordained clergy, commitment to “fidelity in marriage and celibacy in singleness” and “self‐avowed practicing homosexuals are not to be accepted as candidates, ordained as ministers, or appointed to serve in The United Methodist Church.” • 1988 – Added “… we affirm that God’s grace is available to all. We commit ourselves to be in ministry for and with all persons.” • 1992 – Delegates voted to retain the church’s stand. • 1996 – Added a definition of “self‐avowed practicing homosexual,” and a declaration that ceremonies to celebrate homosexual unions shall not be conducted by United Methodist clergy or in United Methodist churches.

  • The United Methodist Church Handbook
    Dear friends in Christ, Grace to you and abundant peace from God, our Creator, and the Lord Jesus Christ. The people of The United Methodist Church are part of a worldwide community with a rich Wesleyan heritage, a shared covenant and a common mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Indeed, the body does not consist of one member but of many (1 Corinthians 12:20). Our connection binds us together in faith and service beyond our individual congregations. We reach out locally and globally through more than 43,000 United Methodist congregations all over the world to help others and to share the good news of Christ’s saving grace. God in Christ loves us, and all of humanity, beyond measure. God’s grace is available to all. We have a shared calling to make that truth an everyday reality for all those who have yet to be invited to experience the healing balm and abundant life of God’s banquet table. We celebrate all that God is doing through The United Methodist Church. This handbook is filled with information about who we are, how we are structured and how we are living out our mission. I hope that as you read this book, it will be a helpful resource and you will see the strength that worldwide connectivity brings to the work of the church. Our prayer is that The United Methodist Church be a community where you find peace, meaning and a future with hope. In Christ’s extravagant grace, Bishop Bruce R.

  • Why the Holiness Movement Is Dead
    WHY THE HOLINESS MOVEMENT IS DEAD KENNETH J. COLLINS In an important article a few years ago, Keith Drury, a denominational official in The Wesleyan Church, maintained that the holiness movement, as a movement, is dead.' He offered eight causes for this unfortunate development: I . We wanted to be respectable 2. We have plunged into the evangelical mainstream 3. We failed to convince the younger generation 4. We quit making holiness the main issue 5. We lost the lay people 6. We over-reacted against the abuses of the past 7. We adopted a "church growth" thinking without theological thinking 8. We did not notice when the battle line moved.' Now Drury does not deny that a holiness infrastructure of churches, boards, and academic institutions is in place, nor that there are many pious souls within them, but what he does dispute is that the vitality and evangelistic power of the holiness movement, along with an attentiveness to holiness in preaching, and personal life, remain to any significant degree. Instead, he conjures up the image of a corpse in an upstairs room that we visit from time to time and with which we have little chats as if the body were alive.' In other words, the days of talking about a pulsing, soul- winning, energetic movement are clearly gone. More recently, Richard S. Taylor, noted Nazarene scholar, entered the fray and offered a similar jeremiad with respect to the holiness movement. Among other things, he listed the following evidences of decline and demise: Kenneth Collins is a professor of historical theology and Wesley studies at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wi/more, Kentucky.

  • The Financial Commitment the United Methodist Church 2013-2016
    The Financial Commitment of The United Methodist Church 2013-2016 As approved by the 2012 General Conference Prepared by The General Council on Finance and Administration 1 September, 2012 Greetings, The following pages represent the FINANCIAL COMMITMENT BOOK of The United Methodist Church. This quadrennially produced booklet outlines for you the decisions of the General Conference. The General Council on Finance and Administration (GCFA) holds the responsibility for publishing the financial plan of the Church based upon the recommendations and vote of the General Conference. Information contained within this book is the result of months of collaborative efforts of the Connectional Table (CT), GCFA, and the general agencies, and reflects the actions of the 2012 General Conference. True to our Wesleyan heritage, we are to do no harm, do good and stay in love with God. When you, as a member of The United Methodist Church give to missions, you create a climate of giving that causes the whole connection to do more good. The explanations and calculations on the following pages may seem complicated. But they serve to provide you with a great deal of information about how your Church dollars are dispersed. Much work has gone into preparing, presenting, and approving the budget of the Church and detailing how the money entrusted to those who care for the worldwide ministries and mission of The United Methodist Church is being spent. The Church is grateful to the delegates of the General Conference for their diligence, hard work, sacrifice and commitment to excellence in determining where to fund ministry that will continue to make disciples of Jesus Christ.
