“Renewal or Ruin?”<\/a> from Steven D. Martin<\/a> on Vimeo.
\n
\nThe Institute on Religion and Democracy’s Attack on the United Methodist Church
\n
\nSince its beginning in 1982, the Institute on Religion and Democracy has continuously undermined the United Methodist Church and other mainline Protestant denominations by attacking the character of church leaders. This organization, funded by some of the world’s most powerful foundations, undermines the witness of the church by fueling controversy to its own benefit.
\n
\n“Renewal or Ruin?” looks into the IRD’s claim that it exists to renew the spiritual life of the church. Researchers, church leaders, and others talk about their findings and experiences with this Washington, DC organization that foments dissention in the body of Christ.
