Heroes of the Faith begins the story of John Wesley by stepping into the world of eighteenth century England, a nation marked by social upheaval, spiritual decline, and growing inequality. In a time when faith felt distant for many, Wesley searched for assurance and deeper truth. This first episode explores the culture that shaped him and the life changing moment at Aldersgate when his heart was strangely warmed and his ministry was set ablaze with renewed purpose.
