Correction: One of the current bishops, Bishop Linda Adams, was chosen at the most recent General Conference. She is the first female bishop (and a wonderful person!).

I'm a UMC pastor that is transferring to the Free Methodist Church this year. I LOVE the Free Methodist Church.

[olivianatwick]

Thank you so much for this video on the Free Methodist church. I am a retired United Methodist clergy. I wish that I could have found the Free Methodist Church when I was a younger minister it would have been the kind of church that I would have loved to have been a pastor and to be a part of. It is completely in line with what I believe. Thank you again for this video.

Thank you again for your catalog of work. My life has been greatly enriched from listening to and watching your videos.

Thanks for uploading this. Again, I appreciate the matter of fact way you present information.

Man... thank you so much for putting all the work in making this video. We need to know about and understand denominations other than our own. Praise God!

[gucciblk]

Thank you for the uploading. It's truly a blessing 🙏💵

[nickrodgers]

Would like to see a comparison video between the SBC and the American Baptist Association or Reformed Baptists (ARBCA). Love your videos! God bless you.

Very thorough and objective - thank you!

I was looking for a church that WASNT Calvinist and believed in the gifts, but that wasn’t Pentecostal. This seems like a perfect fit

[jkfinley]

I edit Light + Life, so it's fun to see the magazine quoted here. Thanks to those of you who noted the inaccuracy about bishops.

Where can one find statistics on the ages of remaining Church members and ages of those leaving, or having already left the Church? How do the elderly cope with dwindling members? Have charitable activities before Covid, differ with those of now.. 2023? Thank you.

So the Free Methodist Church can be an Independent Methodist church to where it can be autonomous?

[susanmorgan]

After listening to this I wonder why those folks of the WCA think they need another denomination the Global Methodist Church . This seems pretty similar as far as I can tell.

[priestesports]

Can I download it and use here in the Philippines? I am a free Methodist here

[lyndaphelps]

This was well done. Thanks. see Adam Freeds comment about our first woman Bishop

[cliveinsley]

So difficult to follow due to the speakers lack of respect for listeners and his inability to pause in speech. A hasty but informative run through of many aspects of the Free Methodists. Very little emphasis on the place and priority of God's Word, Mentions, Yes, but only in passing. Seeing that noone reads these comments I wont bother going on.

Seems like an ever-widening gate right there…I made it through the dispensationalist silliness, but gave up at 18:20 😜

So you can lose and regain your salvation?
