Kevin Watson is a professor at Asbury Theological Seminary, based at their Tulsa campus. Before going to Asbury, he taught at Candler School of Theology, where he was awarded tenure, and Seattle Pacific. He has written some very important books for our tribe; Blueprint for Discipleship, The Class Meeting, and The Band Meeting; and this month he publishes Doctrine, Spirit and Discipline. Way beyond being an academic and writer, Kevin cares for souls. As he writes on his blog site, "My favorite thing to do is walk with people who have a calling to local church ministry and help them grow in their confidence in their calling and gifting for ministry.” That heart for people and their call oozes out of Kevin and makes him one of our favorite people. Today we talk to him about his latest book, and about where the Methodist movement is headed.
