Summer With the Wesleys

Starting today:

"Summer with the Wesleys"

For the next couple of months, we will celebrate the Impact of John & Charles Wesley on Methodism and God's work around the world.

The Wesley family was made famous by the two brothers, John and Charles, who worked together in the rise of Methodism in the British Isles during the 18th century.  John Wesley was a Church of England cleric and Christian theologian.  Wesley is largely credited, along with his brother Charles Wesley, as founding the Methodist movement, which began when he took to riding mile after mile on horseback in order to preach the gospel wherever anyone would listen.  John was the preacher and brother Charles was the hymn writer.

This summer we will hear messages inspired by the preaching and writing of John Wesley, as well as sing some of the hymns composed by Charles Wesley.  The series will include the following:

Wesley and Salvation

Wesley and Heaven

Wesley and Discipleship

Wesley and Sanctification

Wesley and Spiritual Gifts

Wesley and Global Ministry

A dramatic monologue by John Wesley

We hope that you will join us for this rich time of worship.
