Past condems future
Horton said the idea of combining the two churches was discussed, but he doesn't think it will happen. "They're just two different congregations that are proud of each of their churches and their history," he said.
This is kind of a disapointing article. Two United Methodist churches would rather let their history divide them than come together and do something for the Lord. The whole article is about saving the churches, not making a difference. Sadly this story is repeated across thousands of cities and towns across North America. Erwin McManus has a great line in his book where he says something like, "we are going to impact this city for Jesus or close", sadly, these two churches are proposing the opposite.
