About This Book

The book recounts the life of John Wesley for young readers, beginning with his childhood in a large family and dramatic episodes such as a childhood house fire and his father's forgiving example. It follows his spiritual development, ordination, evangelical labors, itinerant preaching, and the founding and spread of the Methodist movement, emphasizing personal piety, social reform, and energetic pastoral care. Episodes are told with vivid, accessible narrative and moral lessons intended to inspire youth, alternating biographical incidents, hymns, and reflections on character, faith, and duty.
