A Word from Wesley

By mltwigg on

As the admissions director at Wesley, I have the honor of witnessing the very amazing things that are daily, irrefutable evidence of the Holy Spirit moving people to do more for Christ in the world. Every time I open the mail, answer the phone, read an email or a fax, I am privy to inspiring stories of how God is calling people to serve for the rest of their lives. A young man emails me and says God is calling him to be an ordained pastor. A successful lawyer calls me up and says the Holy Spirit as been whispering to her for years to go into the ministry. A mother with teenagers writes me a letter that says she and her family are willing to make the time and financial sacrifices necessary for her to be able to serve God’s church.

These people are coming from Sunday schools, Emmaus Walks, Disciple Bible studies, youth groups, choirs, and praise bands. Often they’ve been leading a program, course, worship or a group in their church.

Church Basement Roadshow - July 31

Three authors/friends/public speakers hit the road for a summer, barnstorming churches around the country in a cross between an old time tent revival and the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. Sponsored by Wesley Theological Seminary, Tony Jones, Doug Pagitt, and Mark Scandrette will present a 90-minute show (including a 20-minute intermission) that will combine humor and passion, speaking and video, preaching and dialogue. Audiences will be entertained, to be sure, but, more importantly, they will be given a vision of an alternative Christianity, one that it woefully lacking in today’s world—this alternative is a Christianity of adventurous theology, passionate faithfulness, postmodern wit, and unrelenting concern for the justice and peace that God offers.
