Annotation

John Wesley's phrase, "holiness of heart and life," summarizes his vision ofChristian discipleship. When God's grace renews the heart inwardly, then thebeliever is transformed by living out a practical Christian life in the world.From Almost to Altogether is a collection of nine sermons addressing Wesley'steaching on Christian discipleship. Wesley believed that there is a real differencebetween the "almost Christian" and the "altogether Christian." The love of Godis such that all are invited to receive that love and the transformation it brings.Collectively, these sermons show what it means to move from almost to altogetherin the Christian life.John Wesley was vitally driven by the practical reality of the inner witness andoutward working of the Holy Spirit. The sermons in this book along with theother writings represented in The John Wesley Collection provided the earlyMethodists vital resources in their mission to spread the gospel. Today theycontinue to offer some of the most relevant and helpful messages regarding theBible's promise of transformation for believers in Jesus Christ.
