United Methodist Church disaffiliation in US largely white, Southern & male-led: Report

​​​​​​​View Date:2024-12-23 20:51:01

The traditionalist exodus out of the United Methodist Church in the U.S. is definitively white, Southern and male-led, according to a scholarly analysis of the most recent available data.

The report is the second of its kind from the Lewis Center for Church Leadership, a research center out of the UMC-affiliated Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington D.C., using a much larger data set than the first.
