In her sermon at the Wesleyan Covenant Service, Rev. Vicki Harrison delves into the meaning of true discipleship through the lens of John 15, where Jesus describes Himself as the true vine. She challenges the congregation to consider their relationship with Jesus, emphasizing the importance of abiding in Christ to bear fruit in their spiritual and everyday lives. The service is a call to self-examination and rededication, encouraging everyone to reflect on their faithfulness as disciples of Christ. Rev. Harrison underscores the necessity of continual connection with Jesus, likening it to a vine providing life-sustaining sap to its branches, and stresses the role of pruning in fostering spiritual growth and fruitfulness.

Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt. Put me to doing, put me to suffering. Let me be employed by thee or laid aside for thee, exalted for thee or brought low for thee. Let me be full, let me be empty. Let me have all things, let me have nothing. I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal. And now, O glorious and blessed God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, thou art mine, and I am thine. So be it. And the covenant which I have made on earth, let it be ratified in heaven. Amen.”
In 1775, John Wesley introduced a covenant service as an important part of spiritual life in the Methodist Societies. This renewal service was a time for the Methodists to gather annually in a time of self-examination, reflection, and dedication, wholly giving up themselves and renewing covenant with God. Repentance through confession and commitment was a key focus of the service, demanding humility from those willing to submit themselves to the dynamic words stated within the liturgy. “LIGHT OF THE STABLE” -- CCLI Song # 1914616 | Elizabeth Rhymer | Steve Rhymer | © 1975.

Hey, y'all! Welcome to the Gary Church Podcast . . . from Gary Church, here in Wheaton, IL. We would love to have you worship with us! You may find more information about our next worship service at www.garychurch.org. This is the scripture and sermon from January 1, 2023, New Year's Day, Wesley Covenant Renewal Service, and Epiphany Sunday! Our scripture is read by Nan Krull and (00:05) and the sermon by Rev. Brian Felker Jones “Be Holy, As I Am Holy” (06:37). At Gary Church our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world! Today we have a special opportunity to be part of the Wesley Covenant Renewal Service. In 1663 Richard Alleine, a Puritan, published Vindiciae Pietatis: or, “A Vindication of Godliness in the Greater Strictness and Spirituality of It”. In 1753, it was again published in John Wesley's A Christian Library. Wesley used one chapter, "The Application of the Whole," on Monday, August 11, 1755, in what probably was the first real celebration of the Covenant Service in the Methodist movement. Wesley found the service rich and meaningful. After the time of Wesley several versions of the Covenant Service were developed, gradually giving Wesley's material less place in the total service. The present service follows our Basic Pattern of worship, enables the congregation to participate more fully, and updates language. Most significant, the liturgy beginning with the Invitation is taken directly from Wesley's service of 1780. The Covenant Service is most commonly held on New Year's Eve or New Year Day. It is extremely popular to this very day across the breadth of Methodism around the world and Anglicanism. The heart of the service, focused in the Covenant Prayer, requires persons to commit themselves to God. We are looking forward to together through worship, re-committing ourselves to Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior!2 Chronicles 34:29 –33Jeremiah 31:31 –341 Peter 1:13-25John 15:1–8 Revised Common LectionaryVideo of the entire Wesley Covenant Renewal Service, January 1, 2023 Worship Service at Gary Church

Wednesdays with Wesley is back from hiatus with an episode on the Wesley Covenant Service, which some Methodist churches use on the first Sunday of the New Year. Host Bob Kaylor offers a brief history of the service and then takes a look at the elements of the liturgy that renew our covenant with God and counter our culture's rugged individualism with a promise of surrender to God's will. You can access the United Methodist version of the Wesley Covenant Service here for your church or for your own use. Email the show at pastorbk@tlumc.org and follow Bob on Twitter @revbkaylor.

The Covenant Service at the beginning of a new year, is set in the context of Holy Communion. Remember God's grace and forgiveness in Christ, Remember he will sustain you for the journey ahead. Remember his faithfulness to you, which can inspire our faithfulness in return.
Join us as we take time to recommit ourselves to our faith this year.
It's New Year's Eve, a time when well intentioned resolutions are made, yet seldom kept. In contrast, the Christian year traditionally starts with the first Sunday in Advent, so is well and truly up and running by now. In 1755; John Wesley* introduced the idea of the Christian renewing their commitment to Christ each year with a Covenant Service. He used material from the writings of the seventeenth-century puritans, Joseph and Richard Alleine. With modifications, the Methodist Church still uses this. It's something we can benefit from.

A remarkable feature of the pandemic has been the willingness of so many people to choose limitations for the sake of others, for those we love and for perfect strangers. NHS workers and many others have given themselves to serve. For all of us plans have been put on hold, freedoms curtailed, self-interests temporarily laid aside.
Welcome to the programme that I hope will lift us up whilst we're locked down and not able to be together in our churches, chapels and community groups. This week, I've a mix of old and new! At the start of every new year, Methodists celebrate a covenant service. Established by the father of Methodism - John Wesley - it's an important part of the Methodist Church calendar. But many of this year's covenant services have been affected by the closure of our churches during lockdown, so AT YOUR SERVICE this week goes back in time - to bring you extracts from a Covenant Service, recorded in the Promenade Methodist Church, Douglas FOURTEEN YEARS ago! The service is led by the Rev'd David Shirtliff, who was minister at the Promenade Church at the time - Bible readings are by Margaret Sanders and Frank Cowin, prayers are led by Hollie Johnston and Sue Montgomery, and Jennifer Bird is the organist. It was also a very happy and lively Family Service - so listen out for the arrival of Percy the Puffin! Whilst it has its origins in the Methodist Church, the Covenant Service has a very positive message, to carry us all through these uncertain times. From the Covenant Service of 2007, we come to the present day, reflecting on the fact that, since the first lockdown, one in four people are now entering the word ‘prayer' into internet search engines - that's a lot of people exploring something that can often be quite a challenge to talk about. Peter Shimmin is a Lay Reader, well-known for his work in the Anglican Churches in the North of the Island. Peter and his wife Sylvia live in Andreas with their beloved dog, Jacko. On this week's programme, Peter shares some very personal thoughts and reflections on the subject of prayer. And there's always time to feature your favourite hymns - let me know what you'd like to hear in future programmes by emailing judithley@manxradio.com
