The third of four volumes of John Wesley's Teachings, published by Zondervan in 2013. The series is Oden's text-by-text guide to Wesley's teaching, expanded from his John Wesley's Scriptural Christianity (1994). This volume gathers Wesley's teaching on pastoral theology and the practice of pastoral care. It is a different book from Oden's own Pastoral Theology: Essentials of Ministry (1983).
