We are proud to share with you Faith Revisited’s first esteemed guest. Kenneth H. Carter, Jr. is resident bishop of the Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church. He came to the Florida Conference in 2012 and gives pastoral and administrative leadership to almost 800 congregations, fresh expressions of church, campus ministries and outreach initiatives. Bishop Carter also serves as the president of the Council of Bishops of the United Methodist Church, and he was one of three moderators of A Way Forward, the commission authorized by the General Conference in matters of unity and human sexuality. He is an author, speaker and agent of change.
In this episode we discuss leadership, different expressions of church programs and plenty of baseball! We very much enjoyed our time with Bishop Ken Carter and thank him for his time.
