Welcome to Bar of the Conference. Ben Gosden is an elder in the South Georgia Conference. In this episode, we talk about Ben’s journey of growing up in the UMC, being an affirming pastor in a mostly traditionalists context and the ways that living in the tension has shaped his ministry. Ben’s theology, journey of recovery and gracious posture are instructive for many who intend to remain in the UMC. We cover a lot of practical and theological ground in this interview. Enjoy!
