Thank you!! I am a member of a very old UMC (for now) in Mississippi and the turmoil of disaffiliation along with a small sect of our membership turning on our first female pastor has been heartbreaking. I am completely re-examining my relationship with church and have no idea if I will ever return with the gusto I once had. Your words have always resonated with me and today’s post is no different. I love your writing and appreciate your perspective.

I really love this story. We moved

from a super programmed mega church to a tiny church in 2020 bc my kid was sick and they met outside. It has been a gift.

Shannan, I hear the mentioned but undescribed angst and I am so sorry. I’m praying for you.
