WHY IS THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH SPLINTERING? For decades, the denomination has been mired in intractable debates over theology and the role of LGBTQ people in the church. The UMC bans same-sex marriage and openly LGBTQ clergy.
The historic rift in the United Methodist Church is part of a larger split in recent years in the Christian religion over issues of gender and sexuality. Similar divides have led to splits among Baptists, Mennonites, Presbyterians and other protestant denominations.
The conflict, which began almost upon the churchs inception in 1968, centers around the denominations position regarding the sanctity of marriage and the qualifications of ordained ministry.
Twenty-Five Percent of Churches Disaffiliated from the United Methodist Church. The Lewis Center has issued a final report on disaffiliating churches in the United Methodist Church covering 7,631 churches approved by annual conferences for disaffiliation by December 31, 2023.
In the UMC, once American bishops are elected, they are permanently elevated as bishops for life. Terms of office vary in different regions elsewhere. In contrast, in the GMC, being a bishop is not a lifelong office but rather a sacred trust held for a time (Transitional Book of Doctrines and Discipline 501).

There are a number of reasons why Methodist churches are disaffiliating from the UMC. Some churches believe that the UMCs stance on homosexuality is unbiblical. Others believe that the UMC is too liberal and that it is no longer a true Methodist denomination.
Comparatively, the UMC stands to the right of liberal and progressive Protestant groups such as the United Church of Christ and the Episcopal Church on certain issues (especially regarding sexuality), but to the left of historically conservative evangelical traditions such as the Southern Baptists and Pentecostalism,
