[Oe List ...] Methodist news

[W. J.]

This article may be of interest to those of you who retain a residual interest in United Methodism, as I do on occasion.
For those interested in the power dynamics recently in play, I even went so far as to pen an extended commentary on the article (written by a Lutheran lawyer who may have a historical perspective, but who is definitely not a Methodist 'insider'). It's at the bottom of the web page.
Update: retired Bishop Talbert has just been formally charged in the Western Jurisdiction today.
