The Journal of John Wesley

About this book

"Christians will find their hearts warmed as they read this diary of one whose heart was intensely warmed by the love of God." --Bibliotheca Sacra

The influence of John Wesley on the history of the modern Christian Church is inestimable. Not only did his extensive evangelistic work in England and the United States have a very powerful effect, but his devotional meditations have become loved and cherished by Christians everywhere. John Wesley's complete journal, which he added to daily, encompasses twenty-six volumes describing his experiences and deep inner spiritual life and growth. During his lifetime, portions of this journal were published in four volumes. Here in this handy paperback are selections from this work, giving easy access to the ardent meditations and unique experiences of this man of God. A new understanding of John Wesley and his ministry will be gained from reading this journal, but more important, it offers a new understanding of the God he served.
