Today is John Wesley’s 320th birthday* so in honor of Mr. Wesley, here are a few of my favorite quotes
“Every one, though born of God in an instant, yet undoubtedly grows by slow degrees.”
“Every one, though born of God in an instant, yet undoubtedly grows by slow degrees.”– John Wesley (1703-1791)
The celebration continues with more quotes coming.
*The Wesley household calendar in 1703 when John arrived in the world would have shown June 17 as Britain still used the Julian calendar, the date later shifted to June 28 with the shift to the Gregorian Calendar.
