That John Wesley was not a systematic theologian is a point
frequently made. Yet if that be the case, what kind of theologian
was he? To look at his literary output over the course of his long
life and ministry is to recognize the central role that sermons
played. Thus, claims Michael Paquarello, Wesley was a homiletical
theologian, one for whom the Word preached was the core means of
reflecting on and understanding the meaning of the Gospel. In this
"preaching life" of Wesley Pasquarello places Wesley's sermons in
the larger religious, political, and intellectual world of their
eighteenth-century context. Neither a biography nor an intellectual
history, it is a homiletic history, one that both uses the details
of Wesley's milieu to build a framework for understanding his
sermons, and that illumines the practical wisdom embodied in the
content, form, and style of Wesley's preaching. John Wesley: A
Preaching Life vividly portrays the centrality of Wesley's
preaching to the religious revival that transformed
eighteenth-century England.
