What makes Methodist worship "Methodist" or "Wesleyan?" How do
Methodists evaluate emerging forms of worship in light of their own
liturgical heritage? This book considers these questions by
bringing to light the work and significance of three Methodist
liturgists who have until now received precious little scholarly
focus: Thomas O. Summers (1812-1882), Nolan B. Harmon (1892-1993),
and James F. White (1932-2004). Exploring each one's contribution
to the Methodist movement, it evaluates their continuing legacies
as scholars and practitioners of Methodist worship. Importantly,
the work of all these men occurred during times of cultural change,
which gave rise to new ways of worship within the landscape of
American Methodism. Addressing them in chronological order, this
study shows how each figure enacted liturgical reform and renewal
by drawing from the liturgical textual tradition inherited directly
from John Wesley's Sunday Service of the Methodist in North America
as well as the hymnody of Charles Wesley. It also demonstrates how
they sought to inculturate the Wesleyan liturgical tradition in the
midst of these significant changes. Evaluating historic and
emerging trends in Methodist liturgical praxis, this is a book that
will be of great interest to scholars of Methodism, the History of
Religion, Liturgical Studies and Theology.
