What do you like about this subject?  This subject is my "home turf" so to speak. I grew up a Methodist, and happily became a United Methodist in 1968. This is where my heart is.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I am still gaining insights into the grander scope of God's grace and power. I am hoping to share those insights as others ask questions.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Most people outside the UM church do not realize how strong our ties are to the Lutheran Church. Without Luther, we may never have had Wesley.
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  There are still those who perceive the UM church as not a church at all - some think of us as less than Christian.

Catholics believe this to be an immaculate conception (born without original sin), and they say this much before 1854. Thank you.
