This is the first sermon in an ongoing original sermon series I call, What Would Wesley Say". The United Methodist denomination was founded on the Methodist movement started by John Wesley. And as such, Wesley preached many sermons over the course of his time working in God’s ministry. As a way of not just honoring that history, but also to connect stronger with our Methodist heritage, I use this series as a way to teach more of what our denomination was founded on in regard to theology and faith. In this process, I plan to tell you about what Wesley said and wrote, how it fits with our claimed beliefs, how it applies to our world today, and of course, continue to tie it back to Scripture. The Scripture choices for this message are: Romans 8:29-30; John 13:16-21; Joel 2:28-32.
