I’m working through some of Wesley’s works to help United Methodist churches in the discernment process many are in now. Throughout the document, I provide analysis of what Wesley is saying and questions for consideration. My intention is that these would benefit churches regardless of their theology, ideology, or current stance toward contentious issues. They ought also to be of value to churches at any time in their life.

When we deal with issues of disagreement and conflict, this sermon is probably Wesley’s work that is most frequently cited. I’m not sure it’s read and studied as much as it’s cited, however. It’s worth our spending some time with.
