The Wesley Challenge
By Chris Folmsbee
Wesley who? As mature Methodists, the question seems unimaginable, but do our younger laypeople know who John Wesley was and what he means to our church? The Wesley Challenge introduces our denomination’s father in a practical and accessible way through twenty-one questions studied over three weeks. This series is a great way for your entire church to renew its passion and discover a deeper commitment to God—one that is more authentic, vulnerable, and soul-shaping. Daily posts and messages are designed with an emphasis on graphics and short content bits to engage your physical, emotional, and spiritual lives throughout the 21-day study which offers a book, a Leader Guide, a Youth Study Book, and a DVD.
