4. How did Charles Wesley influence the musical and literary styles of hymnody? (5 points)

5. How did John and Charles Wesley shape the direction of the Wesleyan faith through their hymns? (5 points)

IV. This will be answered in the comment section below. Find a hymn by Charles Wesley and reflect on it. Choose a line or two or three from the hymn and look at it from a perspective of missions. How does it apply? How does it inspire? 

NOTE: this is a first come first served basis on the use of a particular hymn. If someone already chose the hymn, you cannot use that hymn for your own.
