I want to share other biographies that have been good reads. I have come to enjoy the writing of Iain Murray who has become a favorite. I encourage you to pick up a copy of this work on Wesley.
Wesley and the Men Who Followed gives a glimpse into the life of one of the most widely known church leaders to date. John Wesley was an evangelist, itinerant preacher, founder of the Methodist movement, and author. Wesley was the 15th child of a former nonconformist minister, he graduated from Oxford University and became a priest in the Church of England in 1728. From 1729 he participated in a religious study group in Oxford organized by his brother Charles (1707-1788), its members being dubbed the "Methodists" for their emphasis on methodical study and devotion. In this biography by Iain Murray the reader will find a good balance in relation to Wesley ministry and sorting out areas that were conflicts by others during his period of influence.
