This degree focuses on foundational aspects of the Wesleyan tradition that shape personal and social holiness.
Particular attention is given to spiritual practices that help students “do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God” (Micah 6:8) so that they can be instruments of God’s peace through whom “justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream” (Amos 5:24)

Northwind Institute|Seminary is member of the Digital Theological Library which has a rich Wesleyan collection including:
A short guide for helping students cite works by John Wesley
A Christian Library by John Wesley
Among his many writings, John Wesley edited and abridged a number of devotional classics and republished them in what he called A Christian Library. These "Extracts from and Abridgments of the Choicest Pieces of Practical Divinity Which Have Been Published in the English Tongue," as Wesley subtitled them, were first published in 50 volumes in 1750. The present digital collection was scanned from the 1821 edition of these classics, published in 30 volumes.
