Notes: "May 24, 1738. At a prayer meeting in a chapel on Aldergate Street in London, English cleric John Wesley, who with his brother, Charles founded Methodism, feels his 'heart strangely warmed' while listening to a reading of the preface to Martin Luther's 'Commentary on Romans'. This pivotal event transformed Wesley from a largely Anglican clergyman into one of the most influential leaders in Christian history".
