If it works in Kansas does it work in No Trees? Yes, if it's the UMC Publishing House.- What's the obsession with discipleship? It's measurable and safe. And our version stops short of getting into trouble like Jesus did.
- Why are there so many church consultants? See #1 above.
- Are younger clergy just more fodder for the pension system? Not all all. How cynical.
- Why are clergy pensions being re-evaluated? Pensions?
- Why the glass ceiling for women mega- church senior pastors but not for women bishops? The UMC wants to look more progressive than it actually is.
- How can UMC's be for the civil rights of GLBT persons and against holy unions? See number #6.
- How much does the name "Methodist" cost? Ask the trustees of Southern [methodist] University.
- What is fruitless? Probably lecturing on fruitfulness. Or hearing a lecture on it.
- What's a mission-based appointment? Too early to tell; maybe it's new code for a "challenge."
