Wesleyan Doctrine Made Plain

What does your church teach? Have you ever had anyone ask you that question?

John Connor wrote Wesleyan Doctrine Made Plain to teach pastors Wesleyan theology so that pastors could then teach others. He submitted these lessons as part of his work for a master’s degree at Western Evangelical Seminary/George Fox University. He continued his education at Fuller School of World Mission, earning a master’s and doctorate in missiology. During his forty-plus-year career in missions, John and his wife resided and taught pastors in Zambia, Korea, and the Philippines. His greatest legacy, perhaps, was the ten years he directed the JESUS Film partnership, supervising the training of national teams sent out to evangelize the world using film technology. In a seven year period, an average of 100 churches per year were planted as a result of this ministry—thirty-five per year in Mozambique alone.

Wesleyan Doctrine Made Plain has been widely translated and distributed throughout the world to teach the basics of the denomination’s theology.
