Scripture and the Wesleyan Way DVD
A Bible Study on Real Christianity
A Bible study with John Wesley.

In Scripture and the Wesleyan Way, you will discover a Wesleyan approach to the Bible and the Christian life through a Bible study using Wesley’s own words.In this study, authors Scott and Arthur Jones use John Wesley’s sermons to illuminate the Bible passages at the heart of Wesley’s understanding of what it means to be a real Christian. Each chapter explores a key Scripture text and one of Wesley’s sermons on it. Through their insightful and engaging study, Bishop Jones and his son Arthur show how the teachings of Wesley address questions that many of us in the twenty-first century still struggle with today.
]The eight-session DVD features Bishop Scott Jones and his son Arthur guiding participants through each weekly question found in the book. Each video segment is approximately 8-10 minutes in length and, when combined with the eight book chapters, make an ideal eight-week group study. All videos sessions are closed captioned.
