This We Believe: The Core of Wesleyan Faith and Practice
by William H. Willimon
For John Wesley, the Bible is the
joyfully consistent testimony of God’s never-ending grace and
ever-seeking love. Likewise, studying the Bible is more than merely
knowing what Scripture says; it is also about living every day as a
child of God.
Beginning with the
Core Terms found in The Wesley Study Bible, author Bishop
William H. Willimon systematically lays out key Wesleyan
tenets of faith so that you will have a fresh way to hear God’s
voice, share in God’s grace, and become more like Jesus
Christ.
Let this book be
your trusted companion to the NRSV version of The Wesley Study
Bible as you grow to love God with a warmed heart and serve
God with active hands.
