Leadership and Ministry (Younger Clergy) with Grant Caldwell and William Merriman

Thanks for joining us for the Beliefs Matter Podcast!  In this episode, Rev. Dr. Maxie Dunnam pulls up a chair with two younger clergy in the Global Methodist Church to discuss leadership in the church, and what their vision is for the future of the church and ministry. Grant Caldwell makes his home in Tennessee, was born in Clarksville, went to school in Knoxville, and now am a proud Memphian. My wife, Casey, and I have been married for 8 years, and are parents to one son, Kayden.  He is a graduate from both the University of Tennessee and Southern Seminary, and has served on staff at Christ Church Memphis for 7 years in missions, pastoral care, and now as the church's Discipleship Pastor. In his spare time, he likes to spend time with our dog Knox, read books, and dream about his favorite sports teams being good one day. William Merriman is the director of High School ministries at Christ Church, Memphis. He graduated summa cum laude in English from Sewanee: The University of the South in 2019, and he graduated from Asbury Theological Seminary in 2022 with a Master of Arts in Theological Studies with a concentration in Philosophy and Apologetics. He is married to his wife Courtney and loves his dog Darcy. Dr. Dunnam has a website with a plethora of writings and resources at maxiedunnam.com.
