T. Kimbrough, Jr. This volume brings together for the first time the writings of Charles Wesley on the theme of justice for the poor and marginalized. Charles&#8217;s views of how Christians may &#8220;use divine&nbsp;grace&nbsp;divine&#8221; in seeking justice for the poor are indeed&nbsp;radical, for they advocate behavior that is often quite contrary to what is generally accepted as Christian practice.

Following John Wesley in his move to consider the &#8216;works of mercy&#8217; as part of the means of&nbsp;grace, the author proposes to us a relational concept of&nbsp;grace&nbsp;that will prosper in dialogue and solidarity with those in distress, the oppressed &#8216;other&#8217; who make present the gracious &#8216;Other.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Youth Curricula<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"591\" height=\"900\" data-id=\"17375\" src=\"https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/canvas-grace.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/canvas-grace.jpg 591w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/canvas-grace-473x720.jpg 473w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/canvas-grace-99x150.jpg 99w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/canvas-grace-197x300.jpg 197w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 591px) 100vw, 591px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1117\" height=\"1440\" data-id=\"17378\" src=\"https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-1117x1440.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-1117x1440.jpg 1117w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-558x720.jpg 558w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-768x990.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-1191x1536.jpg 1191w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-1589x2048.jpg 1589w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-116x150.jpg 116w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-794x1024.jpg 794w, https:\/\/nccumc.org\/media-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/forgiveness-and-reconciliation-scaled.jpg 1986w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1117px) 100vw, 1117px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nccumc-hl.mimas.opalsinfo.net\/bin\/index#\/recDetail?rid=6032\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canvas: A Portrait of Grace<\/a>.
