2025 New Year's Eve Podcast with Bishop Goodpaster - the Wesley Covenant Prayer 


This bonus episode of the Podcast is on the Covenant Prayer used by John Wesley, Methodism’s founder. Retired Bishop Larry Goodpaster leads us in a conversation about this classic prayer which challenges us to surrender to God’s will and continue to seek to live a faithful Christian life. John Wesley and the people called Methodists used this prayer both then and now as a way to help us to focus on the New Year ahead of us and on our relationship with God.A special thanks to Bishop Goodpaster and we hope that you’ll join in for worship at Oak Grove in 2026 as we begin a new series called “Methodism: This is the Way,” which will focus on the core teachings of the Methodist faith.
