I’d like to put in something about the origins and the heritage of United Methodism. For me, personally, Wesley’s teachings embrace and blend the full spectrum of Christian traditions–from the heart-warming mystical personal experience of “God with us” to allowing faith informed by scripture, tradition, experience, and reason.
I think we should also include a brief history of DUMC and some of our saints and traditions. (Mrs. Zirkle’s and Marie Deloach’s coconut crème pie being a prime example.)
