Reclaiming The Wesleyan Tradition

While it sounds like a difficult undertaking, this program is so well-conceived that it draws the readers in. An excellent structure provides daily assignments in reading and writing about the sermon. The authors supplement each sermon with clarifying analyses of the theme, and provide a wealth of helpful notes, hymns, and prayers.
