I do not seek to understand that I may believe, but I believe in order to understand. For this also I believe, –that unless I believed, I should not understand.-- St. Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109)

Holy Conferencing: What Is It?

In this season of Annual Conferences for United Methodism, it is good to be reminded again what Christian Conferencing is and is not. It is not simply being nice and civil to each other as many UMs believe. (e.g. Even though we don't agree, let's sing "Kumbayah" together.)

Kevin Watson, an authority on all things Wesleyan, writes two posts that should be read on the subject:

Holy Conferencing: What Is It? (Part 1)

Holy Conferencing: What Did Wesley Mean? (Part 2)

I invite you to read his posts to separate fact from fiction.
