They need to stick to the original doctrine of holy scripture, lest the Lord Almighty break out amongst you in a holy zeal.

Right you are, good sir. The biggest success a church can have is being a positive impact on its community

Church attendance has been declining for decades. For decades, churches have moved progressively left and liberal on moral and social issues. Do you think there could possibly be some correlation between the two?

UMC is not loving their flock by leading them astray and allowing them to live in sin and accepting it.

I loved "Getting treasures and hearts, in the same room, in the same conversations!"

I love this!

Community is defined by the group who chooses to come together

Thank you for the conversation.

Wisdom ❤

Thank you for an excellent analysis of this heartbreaking dilemma. I can only think of John Wesley's advice that we don't have to think alike, but we can all love alike. "Think and let think." Please God, may we remember this advice and stop this insanity!

AMEN!!!! It would be great if we could hear a full length interview where you could expound upon these three points and add whatever else you might have been holding back. Thank you for this. I'll listen again and take notes this time.

Thank you for sharing this devotional and ministering to the Pastors today -- I think we need it!!

I love Brandan's messages on TikTok! I hadn't realized 'til recently how many progressive pastors are doing stuff on Tik Tok and love it!

I am blessed! God gave me HIs vision for me 10 years ago and has slowly been giving me the jigsaw pieces to make up the picture of His plan for me. I am part of the embryonic AMiE Anglican church in France. I fully believe in the small groups John Wesley used but now I see Micro Churches as the way forward here in France. Making Disciples and sharing the Kingdom is difficult when the Expat community is so spread out here. The micro church is the model that will work so well here. Amen, Thank you for helping to answer prayers. Chris x

Sidney, Thanks for the inspiring, encouraging, prophetic words...

She asks great questions and Elaine is terrific.

We're going to use this video as part of our kick-off stewardship campaign. Great words!

Ms. White is a n excellent communicator who speaks words of wisdom. There is depth and honesty in her analysis. On the other hand, I would assert that the best of friends serve these functions without necessarily satisfying White's definition of "holy friendships." A good friends can hold you accountable and be a reliable confidant even without a mutual agreement on holiness.

I the final comment

Excellent! I couldn’t agree more!

Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom.

Awesome Interview 💯🔥

The so-called "United Methodist Church" problem is the current reason young people refuse to enter a church once they leave the family nest! It is a shame that most churches are totally bible-focused when Jesus was not! He was people-focused! It is a shame that Christian Church was not "color-blind" at a time when slavery was almost a church-sponsored enterprise. Even the Klu Klux Klan burned "crosses" to show their identity and to spread fear! Would racial discrimination have happened if the Christian Churches followed Jesus and His mission to the world! No!!! When church membership is focused upon liturgy, the bible, and not love, charity, and acceptance, Jesus is not happy with the religions that purport to teach "the ways of Jesus!" To eliminate women pastors is totally unchristian and for a whole denomination to rebel about this shows the futility of religion in the 21st century!

It isn't diversity that can't be "tolerated"...it is the corruption and degeneracy that has entered and controlled the church.

What’s Love Got To Do With It? In Revelation 3:15 Jesus says to the last of the 7 Churches: “I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! But because you are lukewarm and neither hot or cold. I will vomit you out of my mouth.” Why would a Christian Hierarchy fail to heed such a dire warning and compromise what the Bible has to say about the sexually immoral? Probably because nearly 50% of their members agree with the LGBTQ+ agenda? And that is likely because they haven’t been able to honor God’s design for sex themselves. Considering how Jesus felt about hypocrisy, such a attitude is understandable. But there’s a difference between this sin today and what it was in previous generations. And the difference is monumental. People have become proud of it. Celebrating it with it’s own flag and putting it on parade for an entire month. Pride itself is a sin but being proud of immorality is surely the essence of depravity. There were ample warning’s about the circumstances likely to follow the legalization of gay marriage. But, as usual, prophets are largely ignored. Consequences most disturbing have come into play: Transgenders in school rooms, corrupting childhood innocence. This perversion comes straight out of the pit of Hell and it isn’t lukewarm, it is cold blooded evil. Back in the 50’s and 60’s, when sex was coined as “making love”, my generation bought it and sought it. The chant of “make love…not war” made great sense. Sex was undeniably preferable to fighting for a cause we didn’t understand. It was an easy sell for Satan; a little truth to deceive us in a deeper circumstance. He’s using the same ploy now with “Who are you, to say whom someone should love?” What’s love got to do with it? In today’s world, precious little. Yet, today’s modern generation equates sex with love. How naïveté - the act has digressed into an activity of vanity. It’s more of a what’s in it for me conquest. We are inundated with lust. Lust for pleasure, lust for power, lust for money or whatever serves our vain natures. A wise man once said: “Lust is the counterfeit of love.” Dismal is the church that preaches appeasement over repentance on this issue. Such a doctrine has nothing in common with the Gospel and it makes a sham of the cross. Is your church lukewarm on this matter of faith…are you? Do not dread the price of obedience to Jesus Christ - His dividend’s extend beyond eternity.

Excellent, very informative. Thank you.

I like the even-handedness of the video presentation, but from the comments below I think I will just avoid joining any church.

People make this out to be all about homosexuality when at its core is an extremely large rift between scriptural orthodoxy and utter pandemonium you see in the UMC right now.

I love the sharing by Dr. Dawn Weaks. Very relevant to issues that we face in todays churches. Thank you

Interesting

I listen to rap music too😎!!!

Holy Spirit always helps 😇.

UMC just wants to be friends with the world. Those who want to be friends with the world make themselves the enemies of God. You are taking your congregations down the path of destruction.

1 John 3:7-8 “Little children,d let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous. The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil.”

Wow, Wow, Wow!! Thank you so much! Jason you are so right - you were looking at the camera and I felt like you were talking to all of us. Ann was looking at you and her eyes were turned away from us. I could see your point in this KZbin presentation.

I CAN'T HELP BUT ASK, ARE YOU A DEMOCRAT? WHY WOULD I ASK, THE DEMOCRATS ARE DESTROYING AMERICA, THEY VOTE TO KILL INNOCENT BABIES AND THEY SUPPORT THE GAY MOVEMENT, RIGHT? SURELY YOU HAVE TAUGHT THE DEMOCRATS TO REPENT RIGHT??? IF YOU ARE A DEMOCRAT WHY HAVEN'T YOU REPENTED??? 65% OF PASTORS AND PRIESTS ARE DEMOCRATS THAT ARE FULL OF SIN, RIGHT??????????????????

Just read Romans 1. God makes His plan very clear.

Mighty fortress vs field hospital.

The UMC is spinning out of control and will crash and burn unless corrections are made to get back on the flight path.

Very well done, thank you

the Bible says homosexuality is sin and the progressive bishops promote it
