4th Alternative Amendment Video [video]

This video is specifically about the changes to the UM structure (worldwide church amendments). In juxtaposition to the previous videos posted here, Liberian District Superintendent Jerry Kulah is opposing the amendments:



The primary point is that Rev. Kulah wants to see the plans for what the re-structured church looks like BEFORE we go about changing things.

While I think this is a valid point, the Amendments are offered to the Church so that they know what direction to go. If the spirit moves us to adopt these amendments, then the proposed structural changes can be taken a very different direction than if the amendments are defeated.

From a Hacking Christianity perspective, opening the system and opening possible directions via the proposed amendments gives the team more options to faithfully consider. Isn't that a good thing?

Thoughts?
