This is disappointing. It shows how out of touch the church/denomination is with the younger generation.

We have one more NBCUSA-related story coming early next week. Be on the lookout. 👀 #NBCUSA

Kinda crazy to think about: the #NBCUSA annual session will be my third national denominational gathering I'm covering in-person this year following the #UMC General Conference and SBC annual meeting. Grateful for my newsroom supporting this important work.

Throughout this week, I'll update this 🧵 with links to our latest articles on NBCUSA-related news. #NBCUSA

Next (our latest): a narrative on how the looming #NBCUSA leadership crisis expected to leave the denomination in a weakened state to deal with a bigger problem of diminished enthusiasm and participation. www.tennessean.com/story/news/r...

Next, a narrative on a controversial decision by the #NBCUSA Board of Directors to restrict certain churches from nominating candidates for the NBCUSA presidential election (rendering 4 of 5 candidates ineligible for the ballot). www.tennessean.com/story/news/r...

Another plot twist is that I'm en route to Baltimore, so I will be attending the #NBCUSA annual session in-person to cover both the denominational politics and potentially some other big moments 👀. Be on the lookout tomorrow and Thursday.
