The United Methodist Church is Fracturing Over Theology and Corruption. Jeffrey Rickman, a former United Methodist Church pastor, explains how this is happening. Pastor Rickman is part of the Global Methodist Church now, but a month ago he was still ministering in the UMC. Since 2019, when conservatives won a key victory, the denomination has been drifting toward the Left in North America. The traditionalist stance on sexual ethic has been ignored by key figures with power in the denomination. Some churches who want to leave are hassled regarding the specifics. Assets and Real Estate play a large part in the incentives to stay in or leave. Rickman explains two potential scenarios for the next few years.

After watching CNN's Townhall with Donald Trump last evening and reading Russell Moore's recent article on the "great replacement" it occurred to me that the reason most evangelicals vote with Trump and reject Moore has something to do with populist vs. ideological thinking. I explain in this episode.
