Ordering for Spirituality

Wesleyan Class Meetings - Introduction for use today

This retreat teaches how to use Class Meetings for Spiritual Formation using Wesley’s traditional four questions:

• What has God been doing in your life this week;
• How have you responded;
• What have you done for your neighbor?
• What have you done for your church?

These questions change the focus of life to allow God to work with the person for spiritual growth. In the class meeting, Christ is the teacher.
