Susanna Wesley

In this sermon, Stephen Davey highlights how Susanna Wesley shaped history not from a pulpit, but from her home through faithful teaching, discipline, and prayer grounded in Proverbs 1:8–9. Living amid poverty, persecution, marital hardship, and the loss of many children, Susanna devoted herself to the spiritual formation of her family with remarkable structure and perseverance. She believed that reverence for God, disciplined habits, and biblical instruction were essential foundations for life, even when results were unseen or painful. Though many of her children struggled or wandered, God used her faithful influence to shape John and Charles Wesley, leaders of a spiritual awakening that transformed England. Davey concludes that God often builds the brightest legacies through quiet, unseen obedience that values faithfulness over recognition.
