In this interview, Rev. Paul Lawler speaks with Keith Boyette, Transitional Connectional Officer for the Global Methodist Church.
Pending approval, disaffiliation from the United Methodist Church is coming for Christ Church Memphis. We have entered a phase of searching God's wisdom and leadership for what's next regarding our church's affiliation. One of those choices is the Global Methodist Church (GMC).
Keith explains the GMC's focus on Jesus and His mission in the world. He also covers the structure and accountability of the new denomination, emphasizing that bishops are held accountable by the laity and clergy and the importance of keeping the church nimble as a movement rather than becoming institutional and bureaucratic. The goal being to hold the church accountable to its vision of making disciples of Jesus.
