You Can Visit the Past but You
Can’t Live There Anymore
I have a very wise friend with whom
I engage in ―holy conversation‖ who
often uses the term, ―reality
check.‖ She will not allow me the
luxury of living in the past. She forc-
es me to engage the world that ―is,‖
not the world that is ―gone with the
wind.‖ Dr. Nido Qubein, who has
led High Point University from the
academic world of mediocrity to the
summit of excellence, reminds us
trustees and the returning alumni,
―You can visit the past, but you can-
not live there anymore.‖
Perhaps my imagination is absurd,
but I think not, for I see, hear, and
read of so many brilliant leaders of
our present message, mission, and
method who are living with old par-
adigms. Their response (which is
typical) to the changes in our culture
is to try harder and to circle the
wagons, going into defense mode,
even to the point of developing an
―Alamo complex.‖ Let us remem-
ber that all the men in the Alamo
became dead heroes—heroes, yes,
but dead! We United Methodists are
not called to a ―last stand‖ of our
traditions until the surrounding cul-
ture overwhelms us. We are called
to be Jesus people in this time and
in our present place.
Will Rogers was right: ―Things ain‘t
like they used to be and never wuz.‖
The Golden Age That Wasn’t
so Golden
When do you think was the ―golden
age‖ of Methodism or the EUB
Church? If you look at any pictures
of almost any congregation in the
days following World War II you
generally will see many more people
than are attending that same church
today. If attendance were the mis-
sion, those were the golden years.
However, the only voice of social
justice was an annual commitment
card to abstain from the use of alco-
holic beverages for the ensuing year
and to echo the United Nation man-
tras about world peace and ―one
world order‖ or the cold war invec-
tive against ―godless com-
munism.‖ Very little was said about
racism until ―Brown vs. the Board of
Education‖ came before the Su-
preme Court in 1954. The word
―feminism‖ was barely in the

Wesleyan Wisdom: Will We Pay the Price of a Reality Check? By Donald W. Haynes, UMR Columnist
Dr. Donald Haynes is a long time columnist for the now ‗online only‘ United Methodist Reporter. Since many of
you won‘t see this column, I have chosen to reprint it here. Dr. Haynes gives a sobering, but accurate picture of
the church … but I am convinced that God is using this time in our lives to bring us back to the core of our
faith! How exciting is that! Pray as you read … and let the Holy Spirit move you into God‘s presence with
thanksgiving! Pastor Cindy
Page 2 Wesleyan Wisdom cont‘d
I shouldn't be, but I am always amazed
by how our God works. I am amazed
that He would use someone like me.
Someone so full of imperfections. Some-
one who has bumps and bruises from
being banged up by this world we live in.
And because of your generous dona-
tions, God can use me to reach out to
this hurting community.
Because of my vacation and helping at
Annual Conference, I was only in the
office a day and a half over a ten day
span. When I came back on Thursday, I
spent my entire day assisting people with
their needs.
On this day, I kept thinking of 2 Corin-
thians 1:3,4, ―Praise be to the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Fa-
ther of compassion and the God of all
comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our
troubles, so that we can comfort those
in any trouble with the comfort we our-
selves receive from God. ―
There was a lady who needed help with
her water bill. Her parents died on Val-
entine‘s Day. They were in a car acci-
dent. Her sister was driving and injured
in the accident. Because she needed to
go to Mexico to bury her parents and
take care of her sister, she had to leave
her job here. She had to stay two
months, and this left her 17 year-old
daughter with her ex-husband.
Every time she talked about her parents,
she would tear up. Mentioning she had
to leave her daughter caused her to well
up more. While praying with her before
she left, she just cried and cried. Before
leaving, she hugged me tightly. Knowing
the pain of losing both parents, and for-
tunately, not on the same day, I was able
to show her comfort, because God
showed me the comfort during those
times of loss and still shows me comfort
as those heart pains never go away com-
pletely.
I know you pray for this ministry, and
the prayers are very needed. However, I
will be listing the first names of those
we help on the prayer list in the bulletin,
so we can pray for these people by
name.
With our open hearts, open doors, and
open minds, we can comfort. Is there
an opportunity in your life to take the
comfort God has given you for those
bumps and bruises you have endured in
this life, and pass that comfort along to
someone who needs it?
During the month of June with your
generous donations and Salvation Army
funds, we were able to help 12 families
with utilities, four families with rent, one
family with a gas card, one family with a
prescription, one family with diapers,
and a man with steel-toed shoes to
work.
developed enough message and muscle
to have every seminary place a profes-
sor of ―Town and Country Work‖ on
its faculty, but all of them were rural
sociologists, not mentors on bringing
people to Jesus Christ!
1950s
With incredible denominational loyalty,
the rural areas were a pipeline to the
burgeoning suburbs. By the late 1950‘s,
we were experiencing what Gibson
Winters of Garrett Evangelical Biblical
Institute called the ―suburban captivity
of the church.‖ Young preachers used
their rural parishes as stepping stones
to growing suburbs and ―First Church:
Jerusalem.‖
We sold our soul to the culture. The
prophecy Richard Niebuhr made in the
1930‘s came true by the 1950‘s—culture
had so effectively contextualized Christ
that many of our Sunday School and pul-
Benevolent Blessings by Heather McPhearson
dictionary — not in common use,
and certainly not in the pulpit.
Sunday School literature taught children
a surreal view of what it meant to follow
Jesus—―just be a good boy or good
girl.‖ The cross and the atonement were
excised from all children‘s litera-
ture. Jesus was portrayed as ―gentle
Jesus, meek and mild.‖ Billboards across
the land promised that ―the family that
prays together stays together.‖ We nev-
er articulated the possibility of child mo-
lestation or marital abuse. Even Easter
sermons talked about ―immorality,‖ not
the resurrection of Christ.
Until 1964, church growth was biologi-
cal. It stopped almost precisely simulta-
neously with the advent of the birth
control pill. One dimension of this
over-looked reality was the decline of
the rural church. The ―Town and Coun-
try Movement‖ launched in the 1940‘s
pit message sounded like what Diana
Butler Bass calls ―the Rotary Club at
prayer.‖ Thousands of rural churches
were closed, creating a vacuum of minis-
try that was filled by fundamentalist
churches whose positive message was,
―Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and
you will be saved‖ and whose negative
message was, ―you are a passenger on a
hell bound train.‖ Their message
touched the same primordial need that
―country music‖ touched—the pathos of
sin. Unlike the ―somebody done some-
body wrong‖ songs, the gospel of the
foot-stomping, arm-waving evangelist
was, ―Wilt thou be saved? Then why not
tonight?‖ It struck a responsive
chord. In the communities and villages
we abandoned, they built a new religious
ethos.
Just like the proverbial ―frog in the ket-
tle,‖ our vital breath was slowly

dying. We were aided and abetted in
our denial by two secular factors:
As medical science gave us a steady
increase of life expectancy pharma-
ceutical houses developed a steady
stream of ―wonder drugs,‖ we
found ourselves sitting in the pew
and tithing to the budget at an age
when our parents and grandparents
had been either in rocking chairs or
their graves. The dependable nu-
cleus of congregations in every de-
mographic situation became in-
creasingly older. Fewer children
were being born and fewer young
adults were remaining in either the
EUB or Methodist Churches.
The free enterprise democratic
capitalism created enormous new
wealth. People of ordinary circum-
stances began a lifestyle of affluence
that only the wealthy had known in
previous generations. Appreciated
stocks and rising real estate values
enabled painless philanthropy. An
annual ―stewardship campaign‖ be-
came the norm, with people pledg-
ing to support the church during
the ensuing year. Slowly lay ministry
lessened and paid staff ministry in-
creased. Capital campaigns made
possible the erection of aesthetical-
ly impressive sanctuaries. As Sunday
School began to ebb, churches
were sold the ―field of dreams‖ phi-
losophy that a ―Family Life Center‖
would be the panacea that would
bring back the young people. How-
ever, rather then bring families to
the church, these gymnasiums (for
that is what they really were) re-
quired more custodial staff, higher
insurance rates and larger utility
bills, and only rarely brought more
people into the church.
1960s
As the 1960‘s saw violent socio-
economic unrest and change, the Meth-
odists and Evangelical United Brethren
were locked into an obsession with the
evils of denominationalism. The high-
est priority between 1904-1939 was
―unification‖–the merger of
three branches of Methodism. By the
late 1950‘s the highest priority was the
dual track of abolishing the racist Cen-
tral Jurisdiction and merging The Meth-
odist Church and the Evangelical United
Brethren Church. Both accomplish-
ments were applauded as significant
steps toward fulfilling Jesus‘ prayer in
John 17 ― that they may all be one.‖
However, neither merger resulted in
more disciples of Jesus Christ. Indeed
the percentage of African American
members has decreased since the mer-
ger of 1968 and we have lost the nu-
merical equivalent of the EUB
Church. In many towns where
―German Methodism‖ flourished, there
would be an EUB church and a Method-
ist Church on the same city street or
rural community. In the wake of the
merger hundreds, if not thousands,
of those former EUB churches have
closed or atrophied to very small mem-
berships. Merger was not a ―bad
thing,‖ but if in delineating the mission
of the church ―the main thing is to keep
the main thing the main thing,‖ we
were inordinately infatuated with what
Amos the prophet and Peter Berger the
social analyst called ―the noise of sol-
emn assemblies.‖
A Return to the Mission?
Gradually, we developed an apropos
wording for the Book of Discipline:
―The mission of the local church is to
make disciples of Jesus Christ and to
transform the world.‖ Aha! So the
main thing is to make disciples who, in
turn, become the salt of the earth, the
light of the world, and the leaven in the
loaf of secular culture! But here‘s the
―rub.‖ We have not made disciples to
offset those who have left our churches
―for love of this present culture,‖ or for
other faith communions, or by incapaci-
tation and death. Our professions of
faith are an embarrassing statis-
tic. Confirmation is almost totally an
educational experience of short dura-
tion and infrequent life-change. Adult
conversions come mostly through extra
-parish experiences like ―Walk to Em-
maus‖ or non-UMC settings like Bible
Study Fellowship or an evangelistic cru-
sade(also a fading paradigm). Some stu-
dent conversions are through Wesley
Foundation chapters, but the prepon-
derance come through para-Christian
groups like Campus Crusade for Christ,
Young Life, Intervarsity Fellowship, Fel-
lowship of Christian Athletes, etc.
Methodism was born on a university
campus—Oxford. Why can we not
connect with the college ethos to-
day? Most of our converts in the
19th century were among ―the last, the
least, and the lost.‖ Can we do it again,
and if not, why? Have we become a
people of affluence who are socio-
economically possessed rather than
Jesus centered? It‘s time for reality
check.
Redeeming the Past for a Future
of Following Jesus
As I continue my column in the newly
re-
vised www.unitedmethodistreporter.co
m, I will be looking at how we can re-
spond creatively to redeem and sacri-
fice some our old paradigms for God‘s
new work today. I want to consider the
―chemistry of conversion‖ as we con-
sider a new vision for where God is
leading us.
Len Sweet calls us to see the church‘s
mission and the pulpit‘s message as
―following Jesus‖ rather than joining the
church. With his usual wise insight, he
writes, ―To follow Jesus does not mean
to have all the answers…that you have
it all together personally.. that suddenly
all the shades go up and the shadows of
life disappear. It just means that you
keep on moving after the One you‘ve
said ―YES‖ to.‖
May we all keep moving to follow the
great YES wherever that leads us.

The members present at the Charge Conference on June 9 heard several members speak up
about not forgiving the loan of approximately $32,000. Several said we need to pay back what
we borrowed and by doing so, we would increase our interest dollars for the Trustees and
Church Council.
I think as Christians, God would expect us to pay back what we owe. The increase in interest
will not increase unless we step to the plate to show our support to how we voted. The
bank is not willing to pay interest on principle they are not holding.
If you would like to fill out a pledge card for this giving, stop in the office or if you want to
make a one-time payment, you could send it to the office marked Endowment Loan.
As of Friday, June 21, we have received money from four members amounting to $2700.00.
