About this listen
In this episode of the Dulin Weekly Podcast, Pastor James Henry continues the exploration of the Wesleyan Quadrilateral by reflecting on tradition, inviting listeners to see it not as a confining force but as a well from which faith can draw wisdom, nourishment, and guidance. Acknowledging the ways tradition has sometimes harmed or excluded, he reframes it as a living conversation shaped by those who have gone before us—prayers prayed, practices formed, and institutions built in response to human need. Drawing on the Methodist story and the legacy of John Wesley, the episode explores how traditions like worship practices, theological language, education, healthcare, and communal rituals have evolved over time, offering both gifts to receive and elements to re-examine or release. Ultimately, tradition is presented as one voice among others—alongside scripture, reason, and experience—that helps believers make faith their own while faithfully passing it on to future generations.
