PREACHING, OPEN AIR

I could scarcely reconcile myself at first to this strange way of preaching in the fields, of which Whitefield set me an example on Sunday; having been all my life so tenacious of every point relating to decency and order, that I should have thought the saving of souls almost a sin, if it had not been done in a church.

John Wesley’s Journal

I love a commodious room, a soft cushion and a handsome pulpit, but field preaching saves souls.

John Wesley
