A Word from Wesley

Shifting the Theological Paradigm - by Jen McClurg

By Beth Ludlum on

One thing I am really enjoying about Wesley is how I get a new outlook on things during nearly every class.

Last semester, in my Old Testament class, we were talking about Job. Our professor brought up the phrase "There, but for the grace of God, go I."

The Blessings of a Call - By Chip Aldridge

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.
