DESCRIPTION:John Wesley was an 18th century Anglican cleric\, theologian\,
  and evangelist who was the principal leader of a revival movement within 
 the Church of England known as Methodism\, which continues to this day.\n\
 nHe was ordained priest in 1728\, but after an unsuccessful two-year minis
 try in Savannah\, Georgia\, he returned to London and joined a religious s
 ociety led by Moravian Christians. On 24 May 1738\, he experienced a form 
 of evangelical conversion\, and\, as a result\, left the Moravians and beg
 an his own ministry.\n\nWesley travelled widely\, often preaching outdoors
 \, and set up small Christian groups that developed intensive and personal
  accountability\, discipleship\, and religious instruction\, and appointed
  itinerant\, unordained evangelists - both women and men - to care for the
 se groups of people. \n\nUnder Wesley\, Methodists became leaders in many 
 social issues of the day\, including the abolition of slavery and support 
 for women preachers.\n\nHis younger brother\, Charles Wesley\, also an Ang
 lican priest and leader of the Methodist movement\, was a prolific hymnwri
 ter who wrote over 6\,500 hymns during his lifetime\, including some well 
 known to this day\, such as "And Can It Be"\, "O for a Thousand Tongues to
  Sing"\, "Christ the Lord Is Risen Today"\, "Love Divine\, All Loves Excel
 ling" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing".\n\nDespite their closeness\, Cha
 rles and John did not always agree on questions relating to their beliefs.
  In particular\, Charles was strongly opposed to the idea of a breach with
  the Church of England in which they had both been ordained.
