What did John Wesley think about alcohol, music, and popularity? What are his thoughts on education, free will, and joy?

From "absolution" to "zeal," Quotable Wesley is a treasury of quotations taken from Wesley's letters, sermons, tracts, and journal entries on a variety of wide-ranging topics. Here is an essential resource for teachers, Christian leaders, pastors, and laypeople fascinated by the insights of this remarkable founder of the Methodist movement.

Useful for sermon preparation, teaching, and individual reflection, this book is designed to supplement the library of anyone interested in Wesley and his work.

The Apostle Paul stated publicly, "To the Jew I became like a Jew to win the Jews... To those not having the law I became like one not having the law, so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some" (1Cor.9:20-22 TNIV.) Just as the Apostle Paul unfortunately had to live through, suffer, literally "BECOME THE PERSON he was called to witness to in order that he would be able to understand and help them with their problem," Pastor Willie, comparable to Paul, also live through, suffered, struggled with crack cocaine addiction, homelesness and as a result he understands the deception, complications, rejection, misery, pain and agony that crack cocaine addicts go through in their search for deliverance. For those reasons God has also called him into ministry with the purpose of using Pastor Willie's testimony, knowledge, struggles, and compassion for the drug addicted to help deliver, witness and bring them into a happy, drug free, praise worthy relationship with God The truth is that God knows "when people are in "bondage" (Ex2:23; 6:5-6), held a slave to anyone or anything that they will neglect to praise and serve him." (See Ex.6:9). That why I fearlessly say to the evil spirit of crack cocaine influence, "Demon spirit of crack cocaine Bondage let my people go that THEY MAY PRAISE THE LORD " (See Ex. 1:13-14; 3:7-12; 2:23; 8:1, 20; 9:1). Are you sick are tired of going in and out of rehabs only to relapse shortly afterward being released, tired of being confused about why you're or a love is having such a hard time tired breaking the addiction, tired of prostituting yourself, and being viewed as weak and pathedic by the world? Well, your deliverance is moments away

The business of life is to live and to live well. But in this day and age we know almost everything about life except how to live it. We can dissect life and explain its parts and then fail to put it together again in such a way that it becomes a coordinated, harmonious whole. Through the vibrant writings of E. Stanley Jones, discover not only how God desires more for us than we could ever think or imagine, but freely gives us that abundant life of body, mind, and spirit.

"Abundant Living," the sequel to "Victorious Living," continues the journey toward extraordinary life through trusting God and self-surrender. Written in 1942 by one of the greatest Christian leaders of the day, experience this classic devotional with a new foreword by Leonard Sweet.

E. Stanley Jones wrote "Victorious Living" in 1936 to respond to inquirers who had come to him morally and spiritually defeated. They were inwardly beaten, thus outwardly ineffective. The book responds with individual and social emphases, and goes step by step, as if on a ladder, to work through the pressing questions of the inner life and how it extends outward: How do we achieve a life evidencing the peace that passes understanding, even in ourselves, let alone passing it on?

What makes the difference between ordinary living and extraordinary, victorious living? How can we build a new inner strength that shines through in our outward character and relationships? Our own efforts to rise above are ineffective but by applying the power of God s Word we can close the gap between our reality and our beliefs. Each daily reading offers essential truths and eternal principles: keys to victorious living in the circumstances we encounter every day Now this vibrant work is making a long deserved comeback, with a new foreword by Leonard Sweet."

"We are all dwellers in two kingdoms, the inner kingdom, the kingdom of the mind and spirit, and the outer kingdom, that of the body and the physical universe about us. In the former, the kingdom of the unseen, lie the silent, subtle forces that are continually determining, and with exact precision, the conditions of the latter. "To strike the right balance in life is one of the supreme essentials of all successful living. We must work, for we must have bread. We require other things than bread. They are not only valuable, comfortable, but necessary. It is a dumb, stolid being, however, who does not realize that life consists of more than these. They spell mere existence, not abundance, fullness of life." Ralph Waldo Trine was a philosopher, mystic, teacher, author and early mentors of the New Thought Movement. As an author Trine has far outsold other New Thought authors.

For some 2,000 years religious institutions have claimed that the bible is the "word of God" and have interpreted, edited and rewritten sections, distorting the original meanings. This book identifies some of these alterations and shows that bible's true authors were simply humans.
