Earlier this year, Discipleship Ministries hosted a series of six Global Discipleship Webinars featuring United Methodist leaders from around the world talking about ministry in their contexts. Videos from several of those webinars are available on Discipleship Ministries' website. In particular, videos from the following webinars are available:
Discipleship and Community Engagement in a Post-Christian Society with Rev. Barry Sloan
This webinar talks about Rev. Sloan's work in Germany
Discipleship Among Immigrant and Diaspora Communities with Rev. Jonavern Lungub
This webinar talks about Rev. Lungub's work with Filipino and African immigrant communities in the Gulf States of the Middle East.
Discipleship and Evangelism in a Christian-Minority Country with Rev. Lun Sophy and Rev. Andrew Lee
This webinar talks about Methodism in Cambodia, which is a fruit of joint ministry by The United Methodist Church, the Korean Methodist Church, the Methodist Church of Singapore, and the World Federation of Chinese Methodist Churches.
It is hoped that Discipleship Ministries will post the other webinar videos as well.
I found the conversation about immigrant groups in the Middle East particularly interesting, since it represents a growing area of United Methodism, but one that is beyond the experience and outside the information streams of most United Methodists in the United States.
