The GMC of SC emphasizes a return to the foundational elements of Biblical Methodism, including the Creeds, Wesley’s Articles of Religion, and a renewed commitment to disciple-making and spiritual formation. This theological framework ensures that congregations remain grounded in orthodox Christian beliefs and practices, fostering a vibrant future in a new era of Methodism.

Operationally, affiliating with the GMC of SC offers the significant benefit of full ownership of property and assets to local congregations, coupled with a manageable connectional funding model. This arrangement not only affords congregations greater control over their resources but also integrates them into a broader mission and ministry network without the encumbrances often associated with traditional denominational structures. The structured yet flexible approach to clergy education, credentialing, and appointments, alongside comprehensive benefits and pension plans, provides a solid foundation for pastoral leadership and care.

Community and vision stand out as pivotal benefits of joining the GMC of SC. With a global network of approximately 4,500 churches and 4,800 clergy, congregations gain access to a robust accountability system, fostering connections that extend beyond local contexts to regional and global partnerships. This broad network supports church planting, discipleship development, missions outreach, and leadership cultivation, enriching the local congregation's impact and outreach. The GMC's commitment to spreading scriptural holiness across the land as a truly global movement of Methodism offers a compelling pathway for congregations seeking to deepen their faith journey while contributing to a larger, shared mission.
