NYI Talk: Prevenient Grace

The concept of Prevenient Grace is foundational to our Wesleyan theology. It serves as a reminder that God is actively pursuing each and every student. Mid-Atlantic District NYI President, Josh Kleinfeld, shares about the beauty of Prevenient Grace in youth ministry and how he goes about conveying the core beliefs of the church to students.
