Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian's Pattern is Wesley's excerpt of Thomas à Kempis's Imitatio Christi, itself probably the most commonly translated book aside from the Bible. Wesley produced four different editions of Kempis's work and considered it indispensable in achieving true religion of the heart. In The Christian's Pattern, a series of devotionals comprising four treatises on the trials of virtue and morality Christians face from the world as well as from within, there is much to contemplate. From practical advice regarding spiritual growth, to considerations of prayer and response, and even comfort for the soul in the light of God's love and grace, Wesley's publication contains all he felt most important for critical self-examination

Download or read book The Presence of God in the Christian Life written by Henry H. Knight and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1992-11-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the most standard treatments of John Wesley's theology focus their attention on his distinctive 'way of salvation', they fail to provide a thorough examination of Wesley's 'means of grace.' This book offers the first detailed discussion of the means of grace as the liturgical, communal, and devotional context within which growth in the Christian life actually occurred. Knight shows how the means of grace together form an interrelated pattern that enables a growing relationship with God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the Year with John Wesley refreshes and presents some of the theological and reflective writings of the Reverend John Wesley, renowned as 'The father of Methodism'.

Each daily reading is a pure extract from Reverend John Wesley's prolific output as an intelligent, thoughtful and passionate writer. Married to appropriate verses of Scripture and a daily prayer, the words he left behind carry an ancient power.
Download or read book John Wesley s Teachings Volume 2 written by Thomas C. Oden and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first presentation of John Wesley's doctrinal teachings in a systematic form that is also faithful to Wesley's own writings in ebook format. Wesley was a prolific writer and commentator on Scripture, yet it is commonly held that he was not systematic or internally consistent in his theology and doctrinal teachings. On the contrary, Thomas C. Oden intends to demonstrate here that Wesley displayed a remarkable degree of consistency over sixty years of preaching and ministry. The book helps readers to grasp Wesley's essential teachings in an accessible form so that the person desiring to go directly to Wesley's own writings (which fill eighteen volumes) will know exactly where to turn.
