Rev. Clark Atkins is the Global Methodist Elder serving a congregation in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, which is nested in the Trinity Conference of the GMC. Rev. Atkins also chairs the Conference Commission for the Global Methodist Church, which is responsible for many key functions of the entire denomination.

In this conversation, Clark and I discuss his commission’s work on behalf of the millions of people who are banding together to spread scriptural holiness across the globe. I was actually quite pleased to learn of the diligence and faithfulness of this committee. As has been the case in so many conversations about the workings of the GMC, I have been relieved to see that those in charge are not squandering the resources and trust given them. Rather, it would seem that great care is being given so that we start this effort off rightly.

Of course, perfection is not a realistic or helpful standard to hold any group of humans against. Even so, I think those who spend their time with us will similarly be pleased, not only to learn of the work that has been done, but also how successful the work has been! The Global Methodist Church is already putting Americans in the minority.

Thanks be to God for men of the disposition of Clark! I do not have a mind for the details and structures required for such things. Clark and his team do, but they also have an earnest love of the Lord in which they share together.

It was seriously a good conversation. I will think you are strange if you don’t enjoy it.
