概要

John Wesley did not invent religious experience. But he changed how it functioned.

In this episode we look at the moment evangelicalism ignites: the shift from belief as inherited structure to belief as felt, narrated, and testified.

Wesley helped make experience central rather than incidental. Faith was no longer only doctrine received, it was assurance known, grace felt, conversion narrated, holiness pursued.

But once experience becomes evidence, something else happens. Urgency increases. Intensity rises. Stability becomes fragile.

We explore:

  1. Wesley’s theology of grace and response
  2. The role of crisis in early Methodist preaching
  3. The fear of “enthusiasm” and the shadow of the Montanists
  4. How experience became both the engine and the instability of evangelicalism

This is not a caricature of Wesley. It is an attempt to understand the inheritance.

Because the same fire that renews the church can also unsettle it.
