  • The Past and Future of The United Methodist Church, with Dr. Ted Campbell
    We're kicking off Season 2 with an interview with Dr. Ted Campbell, Professor of Church History at Perkins School of Theology. In this episode we discuss The United Methodist Church, where we've been, and where we're going. How did the 1968 merger set the stage for the difficulties we face today? Why didn't we affirm the primacy of Scripture? How did the ecumenical movement shape us for decades to come? We ask all of these questions in this episode, and we even answer some of them.
