hard to believe i’m still a United Methodist but i am. yes, church leaders still say and do some stupid things but i know not everyone in the UMC holds those beliefs. at times i do question my loyalty to a denomination that is anything but loyal to me. but, someone has to work for change, right? what can i say, i’m a social worker—we love challenges like this.
