Featured library items for Aldersgate Day

“In the evening I went very unwillingly to a society in Aldersgate Street, where one was reading Luther’s preface to the Epistle to the Romans. About a quarter before nine, while he was describing the change which God works in the heart through faith in Christ, I felt my heart strangely warmed. I felt I did trust in Christ alone for salvation; and an assurance was given me that He had taken away my sins, even mine, and saved me from the law of sin and death.” John Wesley - May 24, 1738

Wesley: A Heart Transformed Can Change the World (DVD) 
John Wesley: From a person who questioned his own faith to one whose spiritual legacy includes over 70 million Christians of the Wesleyan/Methodist tradition, the movie shows the power of a transformed heart that has been touched by God.
A Heart Set Free: Charles Wesley (DVD)
Charles Wesley broke many barriers of 1700’s England not only to become "the most gifted and indefatigable poet and hymnwriter that England has ever known," but also to give music, heart and soul to the Methodist movement that he and his brother John led.
Recapturing the Wesleys' Vision: An Introduction to the Faith of John and Charles Wesley
Scholar and teacher Paul Wesley Chilcote provides a full and clear introduction to the dynamic faith of John and Charles Wesley. The vital theology of John is skillfully gleaned from his voluminous writings. The corresponding faith of Charles is culled from his enduring hymns.
