How many times have you heard people say "everyone should read Wesley" or maybe you've thought about reading the Standard Sermons but couldn't get past the original language? This volume contains the first twenty sermons, in which Wesley deals with theology, in modern English, making this volume appropriate for individual and small group study. Lay speakers, local pastors, and small group members will enjoy this book.
