The Center for Leadership Development is pleased to offer a new resource for clergy and laity. It is a 12-session study called Wesleyan Roots. The project was initiated by the Cabinet in 2021 as part of Bishop McKee’s emphasis on continually strengthening our Wesleyan identity.
“Wesleyan Roots is different than a class in Methodist studies,” Rev. Dr. Middleton said. “Instead it is designed to highlight beliefs and practices that make United Methodism distinct from other Christian traditions.”
