Excellent, edited collection, by year.

John Wesley's journal entries help the reader gain insight into the thoughts and emotions of a man, called by God to preach, write, evangelize and so much more. Nearly every waking moment was consumed by his effort to win lost souls for Jesus. That he was able to persevere the rigors and persecutions, and illnesses to travel and preach several times a day sometimes well into his 80s is a testimony of how God preserved this man Wesley. When his work was done, God called him home. Anyway, I found the book to be inspirational and a pleasant read. I would advise anyone entering the ministry to read and let this book feed your heart and encourage you.
