The Methodist Darwin Syndrome

Dr. Bergman has done a masterful job documenting the development of the United Methodist Church leadership's acceptance of Darwinism and a progressive secular worldview. The result was the rejection of basic historical Biblical teaching. His balanced, well-documented review from the early 1800s to the present shows the result of abandoning the core beliefs of Christianity has produced the recent major exodus into the Global Methodist Church. As of 2026 close to 8,000 congregations left the United Methodist Church in the U.S. alone. This accounts for about 25 percent of all U.S. churches and a quarter of the denomination's American membership.
