Welcome to the Wesleyan Resistance. In an age when society (and sometimes even the church) is publicly resisting biblical values, traditional morés, and political conservatism, we are in desperate need of a “resistance to the resistance.” The Wesleyan Resistance is dedicated to equipping Christians from the Wesleyan/holiness theological perspective to resist the downward spiral of culture and the complacency (and sometimes complicity) of the church. You’ll find on this site articles, podcasts, courses and resources to encourage you to be bold in standing up for traditional Christian (i.e., “biblical”) principles. Don’t let the “Christian Left” silence you! The message of holiness is just as powerful today as ever. And it has always been and always will be God’s requirement of those who are His. Check out The Wesleyan Resistance Facebook page for news articles reflecting the intersection of faith and culture. Your comments are appreciated!

Lessons from Church History: AD 950-1350 – The Causes and Consequences of the Crusades

Patty David -
The most disturbing aspect of the period of Christian history from 950-1350 is the initiation of the crusades by the church. In all subsequent history, the crusades have been a source of embarrassment to all who call themselves Christians. In light of the Gospel, it is hard to comprehend how the church could reconcile warfare with the standard of love set forth in Scripture. Indeed, in the early centuries of the church, Christianity and service in the military were incompatible. In a period of heightened moral and intellectual awareness, it is strikingly odd that the church would descend to...

The Prodigal Sons: The Elder Brother Syndrome

Patty David -
Who hasn't heard at least one sermon on "The Prodigal Son" (Luke 15:11-32)? Most messages focus on the love of the father who waits patiently for his wayward son to come to his senses – after squandering his inheritance and compromising his integrity – and to return home into the loving arms of his father. We marvel at this illustration of the grace and love of God, our heavenly Father, who runs to meet us the moment we turn our hearts back to Him in repentance. This story has served as a great source of encouragement to parents of wayward...

Lessons from Church History: AD 500-900 – Why the Muslim Invasions Were Successful in the East

Patty David -
The one development in the Dark Ages that intrigues me more than all others is the startling success of the Islamic invasions beginning in the 7th century. Islam, founded by Mohammed following his flight to Medina in 622, was the first new religion to confront Christianity since its inception. Though it was a mixture of Christianity, Judaism, and Arabic religions, it claimed to be superior to them, since Mohammed’s was the final revelation. For all practical purposes at the time, Islam won out over Christianity. Even in strongholds like Palestine and Egypt, where Christianity had flourished, Muslim invaders converted...

URGENT: Wesleyan Church on Verge of Compromise with LGBTQ Agenda

Patty David -
Your urgent prayers and actions are needed immediately. Please read the email from Dr. Everett Piper (president of Oklahoma Wesleyan University) below and the accompanying documents and pass this article on to pastors and godly Christians in your network. Let there be no mistake: this is a pivotal moment. If we compromise with sin at this time, there will be no going back. We need to RESIST this blatant attempt to disavow the truths of the Bible and the message of holiness. It's time to take a stand and let your pastor, your church, your district superintendent and board...
