This week Alex and Josh share their reactions to the 32-member commission named by the United Methodist Council of Bishops. This commission is being charged with finding a way forward for the denomination which is deeply divided over whether or not it should abandon or alter its current position on homosexuality. During the episode, both hosts reference an article from United Methodist Insight. Here is a link to the article.  http://um-insight.net/in-the-church/finance-and-administration/council-of-bishops-names-32-members-to-commission/

Recorded on 10/26/16.

The purpose of 'We Are Compatible' is to explore the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals and families as well as their allies in order to show that, regardless of what the United Methodist Book of Discipline may say, they are, in fact, compatible. Please join hosts, Alex Shanks and Josh Culbertson, as they explore these stories of courageous authenticity.
