This is the second book in this series based on John Wesley sermons by Michael Roberts and Lauren Delano Grosskopf, Radically Blessed: The Core Teachings of Jesus through the Sermons of John Wesley invites readers into a life-transforming journey through the heart of Christian discipleship. Drawing from the Sermon on the Mount and the powerful, often-overlooked sermons of John Wesley, this book offers a fresh and devotional exploration of Jesus' most foundational teachings.
Each chapter presents a paraphrase of Wesley's sermon, followed by reflections, devotions, and questions that help readers apply these timeless truths to everyday life. With clarity, depth, and a deep pastoral heart, Radically Blessed bridges the wisdom of the 18th-century Methodist revival with the challenges and hopes of today's world.
Whether you're a long-time follower of Jesus, a spiritual seeker, or someone looking to rediscover the radical blessings at the center of the Christian faith, this book offers insight, encouragement, and a renewed vision of what it means to live a holy, grace-filled life. Come to the mountaintop and see the world as Jesus and Wesley saw it-a place where meekness is strength, mercy is power, and love is the very foundation of the kingdom of God.
What Readers are SayingAs Michael Roberts breathes fresh life into the timeless wisdom of John Wesley, we gain a valuable reminder of the importance of the Sermon on the Mount. This book will deepen your commitment to Jesus and show you how to live the radically blessed life God intends.
Magrey R. deVega, Pastor and author of Questions Jesus Asked
John Wesley was known for speaking 'plain speech' for 'plain people, ' and yet anyone who has read his standard sermons might be left wondering, What is plain about this? Through these paraphrases, Michael Roberts, along with Lauren DeLano Grosskopf, truly makes Wesley's own words 'plain' for us to better understand today. And it doesn't stop there. Through reflections, discussion questions, and devotions, Methodists can reconnect to these sermons in a new and revived way.
Ashley Boggan, General Secretary of the General Commission on Archives and History
Michael Roberts is an insightful pastor and leader who I deeply appreciate. This work, which draws from Wesley's message to illuminate the seasons of the church year, is a gift to us all.
Adam Hamilton, Pastor and author of The Message of Jesus, among many other books
Michael Roberts and Lauren Delano-Grosskopf have opened the wisdom of Wesley's sermons to a modern audience. Christ's invitation to covenant love and discipleship speaks with a fresh and powerful voice through this writing.
Bishop Laura Merrill, Arkansas, Oklahoma, & Oklahoma Indian Missionary Conferences
Radically Blessed is a great book that I highly recommend for personal or small-group study in any local church. Every lay and clergy person would benefit from reading this book to get a better sense of John Wesley's theology. Like the first book in the series, this book leaves us wanting more and is a gift to our churches. I feel simply blessed through the reading of this book!
Bishop Bob Farr, Missouri Conference of the United Methodist Church
What a quintessentially Wesleyan project! Roberts and Grosskopf offer lively paraphrases of Wesley's sermons, just as Wesley edited and paraphrased writings from his Anglican tradition. This is an excellent resource for congregations and for pastors as a treasure trove for preaching. This series brings Wesleyan theology to life for our time, offering plain truth for plain people.
