John Wycliffe

Planned learning focus

• Locate Wycliffe in the setting of late medieval England.
• Discuss the relationship between Scripture, authority, and accessible teaching.

A question for your class

How does understandable teaching help a congregation examine what it hears?

Use this as an opening question, then return to it after examining the historical setting and sources.

Preparing to teach

Consider what your students already know about church history. Introduce unfamiliar names and terms, place the topic on a timeline, and distinguish historical description from theological evaluation.
