Matt LeRoy has co-authored a book with Jeremy Summers. The book, entitled “The Way Forward” deals with discovering the classic message of holiness. LeRoy is a 1999 graduate of Southern Wesleyan University and graduated this past December from Asbury Theological Seminary with a master’s degree in divinity. He is an ordained pastor in The Wesleyan Church. LeRoy and his wife, Sarah, plan to move to Chapel Hill, N.C., where he has been called to plant
a church.

Other contributors to the book with SWU connections include Dr. Bob Black, professor of religion; and alumni Dr. Joseph Dongell, Asbury Theological Seminary professor; Josh LeRoy; and David Medders, president of Bethany Bible College. Summers is a graduate of
ndiana Wesleyan University and Asbury Theological Seminary. He is an ordained pastor in The Wesleyan Church.

“The Way Forward” seeks to introduce a new generation to the classic message of holiness, captured in the words of its great heralds. At the core of this book is the work of John and Charles Wesley, writings that profoundly influenced their ideas on holy
living. The book traces the journey of this message through the generations that followed. It echoes the voices of a humble monk, a former slave turned founding bishop, a politician, a poet, abolitionists,
activists. preachers, professors, reformers and revolutionaries. These voices tell the story of the timeless promise of God’s far-reaching grace and
transforming love.
