Anniversary of John Wesley’s conversion

This Sunday marks 282 years since John Wesley’s often called ‘conversion’ experience where he uttered the words: “My heart was strangely warmed.” This change in his understanding of faith eventually led to the formation of the Methodist Church. The Methodist Church in Australia is one of the three Australian churches that came together to form the Uniting Church in Australia in 1977.

To celebrate this anniversary Rev Don Dowling, retired Uniting Church WA Minister and member of Margaret River Uniting Church, has a conversation with Rev Emeritus Prof Bill Loader, Uniting Church theologian and author, on his experience in the Methodist Church, and on the experience John Wesley felt at the time.
