What is a Methodist?
A Methodist should be easy to define.
Officially you can find out from the United Methodist Church site.
Historically you can find out from the John Wesley (founder of Methodism) site.
But there are some Methodists who are calling for change. And that change may mean a call to a more conservative direction, or a more liberal direction. Some groups would call us to become more liturgical. Others are calling for temperance. This listing is not meant to be complete. This listing is meant to get you to thinking....what does it mean to be called a Methodist?
