Synopsis

He believed a formula could fix what only grace can heal.
In 1886, Robert Louis Stevenson gave the world a chilling mystery: a respectable doctor who discovers he can separate his divided nature into two men — one virtuous, one monstrous. What Stevenson meant as a thriller, John Wesley had already diagnosed a century and a half earlier from the pulpit: the human heart, left to itself, is not basically good with occasional lapses. It is bent — and only grace can make it whole.
Two Men, One Soul walks through Stevenson's classic novella chapter by chapter, pairing each scene with a sermon from John Wesley, a hymn from his brother Charles, and — in four dedicated teaching chapters — the voices of the early church fathers: Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, Tertullian, and Chrysostom. The result is a complete, accessible walk through the Wesleyan-Holiness doctrine of salvation: prevenient grace, justification, sanctification (both instantaneous and progressive), and glorification — anchored the whole way through in Jekyll's tragic, very human attempt to save himself by his own formula.
Each chapter includes:

• The Scene — a retelling of Stevenson's original text
• Wesley Speaks and Charles Wesley Sings — real sermons and hymns, not paraphrase
• The Ancient Voice — early church witnesses to the same doctrine, in four chapters
• The Bridge, Application, and Ask the Pastor — practical, pastoral, and honest
• Reflection Questions and Prayer for personal or group study

With three appendices — a 30-day Bible study, John Wesley's own small-group accountability questions, and a history of the Church of the Nazarene — this book works equally well as a personal devotional, a small group study, or a Sunday school semester.
Jekyll never found the door out. This book is written for readers who want to.
