Registration is open until Thursday, August 8, 2024, at 11:00 pm.

The NC Conference Lay Servant Ministries team presents Living Our United Methodist Beliefs (UM History) on Zoom…

This course will explore the special gifts of theology, witness, and organization that The United Methodist Church brings to the church universal, how we got where we are today, and how our distinctive emphases are still needed in the 21st-century church.

Participants will:

  • Gain an understanding of the distinctive traditions and emphases of The United Methodist Church;
  • Learn about the journey of the people historically known as Methodists and Evangelical United Brethren, who united in 1968 to form The United Methodist Church;
  • Learn about the contributions of the early leaders of these churches – Wesley, Otterbein, Boehm, Albright, and many others;
  • Develop skills in interpreting United Methodist heritage and emphases to the local church and its members.
