In 2007, Philip and Samantha Meadows began the Inspire Movement, a modern day international ecumenical attempt at replicating many of the gifts of the Methodist tradition. This is one of the many options available to believers who know that they need a more intimate and biblical faith. At this inflection point of Methodism, we would do well to learn from those who have already been doing the work of helping believers walk together in the Spirit.

Dr. Meadows is a professor at Asbury Theological Seminary, he has published many books on evangelism, mission, and small group discipleship. He is appreciated and respected by many in contemporary Methodism, and for good reason. I enjoyed this conversation. You will, too.
