Virginia Conference Medical Debt Update
Thank you for sharing to RUclips!
But skunks can be mad
My firm’s principals and impact statement is focused on how someone else perceives those statements. That is how we grow to understand, accept, and embrace others.
Hope we remove pronouns and just align us and the readings as family members, not aligned to anyone as he/she.
I am not better off than I was 4 years ago, therefore how can those that have less than I do be better off. We are struggling to pay our monthly expenses, I can't imagine what those who have less feel. This talk is given from an ivory tower and is one of the biggest reasons I left the Methodist church.
Explain to me how you aren't better off than 4 years ago. Did you know that the unemployment rate was at 15% in 2020 while Trump was president. Also do you not remember that Trump got on national TV and told the American people to inject themselves with bleach to kill the covd-19 virus. Also Trump told the American people over 30,753 lies while he was president and still does today. If you like being lied to and support terroristism by Trump then you go right ahead and vote for him. As Christian people we was taught not to hate one another but Trump wants Americans to turn on each and hate one another, if Christians across the nation can't see that then I don't know what to say. I vote Democratic for economic reasons and Democratic presidents handles the economy better than republican presidents do and that's a proven fact going back to world War 2.
Methodists have LONG SINCE abandoned the theology of Wesley!
Thank you Bishop Sue.
Excuse me, but is it too much to ask our representatives to dress up and look like the professional people they claim to be?
Monitoring!
I will be attending online this year
Welcome! Thank you for including all of all of us .
Are they ADA compliant.?
So excited for the Appomattox community !!!
If this woman was truly leading people by the Spirit and Word, she wouldn't affirm and condone the ungodly practice of homosexuality. Do you know what Jesus meant when He said, "I came not to bring peace on the earth, but a sword, and to set a man at variance with His neighbor?" He meant that taking a holy stance on matters of faith and practice will often come with severe social and relational consequences. It may just drive a permanent wedge between two people. Is it "hateful" for a doctor to inform a person he has cancer? Of course not. Neither is it hateful for a Christian to inform a practicing homosexual that such a practice is evil, and the true Christian will do just that. This woman is not a true servant of God but a "tare" of the wicked one.

Sadly, this woman is a godless "tare" of Satan, promoting that which God loathes under the banner of a false gospel.
Virginia can HAVE this despicable “bishop.” She wreaked havoc with her liberal ideologies and a “my way or the highway” approach within the North GA UMC conference. She’s part of the reason why the UMC is collapsing in on itself now. A pathetic excuse for a human being. She’s done more anti-Christian things than I can count to force her way/beliefs onto others and entire churches. And does so with a smile on her face. Good bye, and good riddance!

Joining online! Thank You
Thoughtful, faith-grounded, articulate. God bless you. May God bless our Conference in unique ways in this unique time.
Love celebrating our connection. Shenandoah River District Mt Zion-Willisville Cooperative Parish Lay Leader of Willisville Chapel Local Love these sessions. I am excited for the restoration and focus on leveraging our differences in love. We model Christ in all things. Thank you all
I appreciate the dedication the committee provides to each AC session.
Amen to the comments on doctrine, discipleship, and the growth of Christ's kingdom.
It won’t last you will go to hell for all eternity. May God have mercy
Diversity, Black Culture. Is simply very TOXIC
What a load of crap. Monitor that.
👀 alright, Bev
So for clarity... this resolutions committee can determine what resolutions might come before the AC?
Your ministry is beautiful. I'd love to learn how to make these for our priests.
Amanda, you are hilarious!
Thanks Jonathan. I'm showing some of the videos in my worship services to let our church know what's going on.
Yes, thank you. I am happy to see our Annual Conference help our preachers and churches understand the complex challenges of salary equity in the 21st century.
Thank you for your work and for providing these helpful videos.
Great opportunity to learn from each other
Love it! Lunch Labs
Well done. Thanks
No more arguing because you drove out the moderates. I'm sure that Mt. Bethel would disagree with you about "Christian love".
This didn't age well. A lot of breaking promises, timelines, and procedures after they realized many more churches wanted to leave than the few they expected. More than 7,000 now, I believe. I'm sure there would have been more leave if they hadn't starting making it almost impossible to leave before their cutoff date passed. It's also sad that the African congregants weren't fully represented at the Conference and able to vote according to their stances. Very sad when God's unchanging Word is totally ignored. Totally invalidates the whole UMC denomination and that's sad. This seems to remind me of how in the last days people in the faith will be swayed and deceived by the doctrine and teachings of demons. I grew up UMC; thankfully the Lord led me to Spirit filled church that believes and teaches the entirety of God's Word.
what a beautiful moment! thank you for uplifting these voices in a time of joy and celebration, i am more hopeful for the future of the UMC than ever before and for my place in it <3
Propaganda that didn’t age well.
Bye Bye UMC...😢😢 They will be closing down soon. But, it is ok! There is the Global Methodist Church!❤❤❤❤
Bye bye UMC
As a lay servant in the cal nev conference, this moment makes me proud to #beumc
Your church has gone off the rails ! Human Sexuality ! The gospel is not discriminatory !
Thank You Bishop Sue! PTL
glad to #beumc this week. all weeks really, but especially today. thank you for capturing these stories and the waves of joy and grief as they flood a lot of us. I really do see God moving. It's not that He is doing new things, its that we are finally able to see it and recognize it. ❤
What the !@!?.
For those who don't see the power of Christ here, I pray for you to see how bad the fruit of what a nonaffirming theology produces. Study the perspectives, you'll likely find places both sides seem to talk past each other or omit an argument raised by the counterview. But go actually listen to the life stories of how our fellows in Christ--many during their youth--are then fated to be either put through the trauma of groups like Exodus Intl. or a life of celibacy (which Jesus in Mt. 19:11-12 said was a gift, so not forced onto others) ... and tell me that is not bad fruit to a T when you see the lasting scars that non-affirming theology leaves on our siblings in Christ. If it is Methodism to do good, do no harm, and strive to grow then I cannot help to see this week's landmark decision as all 3.
This is fantastic! I hope this will bring healing to many people who have been hurt through words and actions brought on by others.
THIS IS SIN AGAINST CHRIST! ☹☹
I am so thankful we are moving toward perfection. No one should be told they are of less value because of who they love, who they are, who they are becoming.
Perfection? Are you serious? This “church” is doing the opposite of what it should be doing.
