In today’s episode, the guys discuss John Wesley, founder of the Methodist faith. He was born June 17, 1703 and died March 12, 1791. His father was a minister in the Church of England and he was 15th out of 19 children. This was a man who lived constantly with the realization that he shouldn\u2019t be alive. He was driven by the eternal and once said \u201cI have thought that I am a creature of a day, passing by life as an arrow through the air. I am a spirit come from God and returning to God.\u201d <\/em>He attended Oxford and was immediately recognized as an extraordinary student, and became a minister right off the bat.<\/p>\n

He arrived in Savannah, Georgia, where he was invited to serve as a pastor for the colonies.\u00a0 He was converted in May of 1738. He writes of the reassurance he felt at this moment as Christ had saved him from sin and death. In order to know his savior, Wesley first had to understand his sin. In order to experience mercy, he had to know wrath. He began to feel uncomfortable by the emotions his preaching often elicited and warmed to the new method of ministry.<\/p>\n

His journal reveals his intimate relationship with God, which is what likely helped him complete all of the amazing things he did over his lifetime. For example, he averaged about 5,000 miles a year in travel, equal to traveling around the globe 12 times. Most of this he did on horseback. He delivered an average of 15 sermons per week, mostly in the open air, and under difficult circumstances. Over his lifetime, he preached a total of 42,400 sermons. His list of extraordinary accomplishments goes on, including planting over 400 small local churches. Then, the guys discuss how we should respect our forefathers not as God, but as wise men we can learn greatly from. In closing, we hear Wesley\u2019s wish to see the world grow closer to God in body, soul and substance before his own passing. It is reported that his final words following an illness were \u201cBest of all is God is with us.\u201d <\/em>And he is with you, too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
