Greetings Friends,
I met a man a few weeks ago who recently left the United Methodist Church after serving as a pastor for 30+ years and moved to my area to plant a church under some new traditional Wesleyan group. Though the man and I have significant differences between the two of us I've enjoyed the interactions I've had with him and his missionary zeal has made a favorable impression on me. I've found myself praying for the man quite regularly as of late.
My interaction with this gentlemen made me realize He's the first Methodist I've met (knowingly), which is quite surprising considering we've got Methodist Churches sprinkled all over rural Virginia.
At any rate...the encounter made me wonder whether anyone has ever met any Calvinistic Methodists? I read somewhere there used to be quite a few in Wales.
Did anyone here come out of a Methodist background?
