I am compelled by Jesus to share with you an encouraging word or two about Jesus, theology, the bible, the pandemic, the environment, racism, voting rights, human sexuality and state of the United Methodist Church. I also think we rise to our highest potential when we listen and learn from others. I love to talk with be encouraged by having conversations with insightful experts who help make me better.

Trimble leads an engaging discussion on Chapters 5 and 6 of Paul Chilcote's book "Multiplying Love: A Methodist Renewal for Discipleship, Mission, and Community." The conversation kicks off with a powerful reading from Colossians 3:11-15, setting the tone for exploring what it truly means to be a movement of inclusive love and grace as the church. Participants share profound insights on rediscovering the church as a loving, spirit-led movement rather than just an organized religion focused on doctrine and structure. Drawing from sobering statistics, the group wrestles with the hard truth that many unchurched Americans view Christianity today as more about organized religion than loving God and neighbor. This sparks a poignant dialogue on how the church can better embody and convey the generous, benevolent love of God. In a moving moment, Rev. Dr. Michael Cartwright offers a heartfelt confession, reflecting on his early ministry years and the need to prioritize "being with" over just "doing for." His vulnerability reminds us all of the transformative power of abiding in Christ's love through authentic relationships. The discussion then turns to John 15:4-10, the powerful vine and branches analogy, leading to insights on the church's calling to be a community...

Episode 094 is part 2 in the series. In this episode we explore the impact of disaffiliation, likening it to a divorce and custody battle, and how the church is navigating recovery and finding hope for the future. Joined by guest Rev. Tracey Leslie, from the Indiana Annual Conference Staff and Tanya Hess from the North Madison United Methodist Church, we discuss the emotional aftermath of the vote for disaffiliation and the challenges the church faced in continuing its ministry, including a particularly meaningful story about a donut stand ministry at the county fair. We also explore how the church dealt with the analogy of divorce and custody battle, and how they are working to redefine their narrative and find hope for the future. Bishop Julius C Trimble weighs in with insightful commentary, offering words of encouragement and hope for churches facing similar challenges. Join us as we delve into this difficult yet ultimately uplifting story of resilience and faith, and learn how one church is finding new purpose and determination in the face of adversity. Rev.

We take a closer look at paragraph 2553, the catalyst for many church votes, some marked by a significant lack of clarity, leaving faith communities on the precipice of separation. Our focus will be on the real and pressing concerns that arise when congregations consider disaffiliation: the tangible effects on church life, ministry, and their ability to influence the community. We confront the emotional and logistical complications that emerge, especially in churches divided by narrowly split votes. Joining us in this critical conversation are Rev. Tracey Leslie and dedicated layperson Tanya Hess, who bring both expertise and experience to the table. Rev. Leslie will shed light on her role in guiding congregations through these turbulent times, particularly in welcoming and understanding those impacted by church divisions. Tanya Hess presents a heartfelt account of her personal journey with the North Madison United Methodist Church, revealing the hardships and consequences of their disaffiliation debate. As we explore the difficult terrain of church splits, financial burdens, and the exodus of leadership, our goal is to uncover pathways towards healing and rebuilding. This episode marks the beginning of our exploration into recovery, with the promise of delving deeper in Part 2 (Episode 094 “The Disaffiliation Dilemma: Recover and Hope”.) We invite you to listen with an open heart as we offer support and guidance to those navigating these troubled waters. Together, we'll seek to reaffirm our commitment to the fundamental mission of the church: to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Please join us for this important conversation here on "To Be Encouraged." Rev. Tracey Leslie <tracey.leslie@inumc.org>; Tanya Hess <tarhess@msn.com>

10/22/2023
Bishop Julius C. Trimble is the Resident Bishop of the Indiana Area of the United Methodist Church. Bishop Trimble has the personal mission to encourage all people with the love of Jesus Christ to rise to their highest potential. It is his commitment to his personal mission that led Bishop Trimble to create the “To Be Encouraged” Podcast along with co-host Rev.Dr. Brad MIller. Bishop Trimble says, “I am compelled by Jesus to share with you an encouraging word or two about Jesus, theology, the Bible, the pandemic, the environment, racism, voting rights, human sexuality, and the state of the United Methodist Church.” To Be Encouraged with Bishop Julius C. Trimble is to be published weekly and is available at www.tobeencouraged.com and all the podcast directories. https://www.inumc.org/bishop/office-of-the-bishop/ This Episode is a part of a limited series of episodes within this podcast focused on Bishop Trimble's book "10 Reasons I Am a Methodist" available on Amazon.
