The fundamentals
We believe in the teachings of John Wesley during his life and ministry. There is so much to know about the transformative life he led, and you can read more here. One of his most famous synopses of his teachings is what we stand by still today:
Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.
- John Wesley

Matthew 28:19-20
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Amen.
