If you have been following along on the livestream during this first week of the General Conference in Charlotte, N.C., you may have noticed that the air is different. Rev. Adam Hamilton said on Tuesday night, “It feels like this is the Church I’ve been dreaming of and hoping for since I became United Methodist.” It seems to be that the Holy Spirit is moving in a new way. What does it mean for us? How can we be a part of building and creating the next utterance of the Church, alive with ALL of our unique gifts and witness? How do we recover the mission that Jesus commissioned us with long ago?
