He unpacks what John Wesley meant by the “means of grace”: baptism, the Lord’s Supper, and preaching. Dr. Witherington will help you think seriously and coherently about the scriptural background to these topics, the relevant historical background of the church, and the nature of the sacraments as means of grace.
