S9E02: GCTalk Progressive and Conservative Ideology in the UMC (With Pastor Zach Taylor)

Right now in the UMC there is a deep divide between progressives and conservatives, or liberals and traditionalists, whichever way you choose to designate the factions.  On the conservative side, the Wesleyan Covenant Association is helping to set up a new Methodist denomination in anticipation of the passage of the Protocol for Grace through Separation (to be voted on in the 2022 General Conference).  But how did we get here?  And what are the differences between the two sides?  Is the divide so deep that we cannot overcome it?  Two conservative pastors, myself and Pastor Zach Taylor of New Hope UMC in Penns Grove, take on this expansive topic to find out where it all began, and where we believe we shall end up.
