How is it that we come to know ourselves as Christians? What
were the elements of John Wesley s work that contributed to
spiritual formation for a Christian life, and how did these
elements interrelate? Focusing on matters of formation and
transformation in faith, Sondra Matthaei answers such questions in
light of early Methodist practices of formation. Through research
and dialogue with Wesleyan scholarship and constructive proposals
related to the life of the church, this insightful study encourages
faithful and imaginative approaches to spiritual formation in
churches today.
The focus of this book is on matters of formation and
transformation in faith. The book answers the question "How do we
come to know ourselves as Christian?" and analyzes this question in
light of early Methodist practices of formation and an ecology of
education within the Methodist movement. The reader will come to
understand John Wesley's idea of character formation and moral
transformation. The reader will understand how Christian and
vocation are shaped through spiritual formation and will understand
the role of structures and relationships (family, school, church,
etc.) in spiritual formation. "
