John Wesley's most representative collection on Christian
Perfection. ' Now let this perfection appear in its native form,
and who can speak one word against it? Will any dare to speak
against loving the Lord our God with all our heart, and our
neighbor as ourselves? Against a renewal of heart, not only in
part, but in the whole image of God? Who is he that will open his
mouth against being cleansed from all pollution both of flesh and
spirit; or against having all the mind that was in Christ, and
walking in all things as Christ walked? What man, who calls himself
a Christian, has the hardiness to object to the devoting, not a
part, but all our soul, body, and substance to God?'
Here is Biblical narrative preaching that transforms. John W.
Wright presents a new model of preaching that aims to connect the
biblical text with a congregation so that they are formed into a
true Christian community. Such formation calls for interpretative
engagement with both the biblical narrative and the cultural
narrative that shapes our society. Wright critically surveys
current theories of preaching and the variety of hermeneutical
practices, providing clear guidance and practical direction for
faithful preaching.
John Wesley wrote this series of sermon commentaries to help people
understand Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. It took him over 15 years to
complete this important work. Over time changes within the English
language caused some of these writings to be very difficult for the
average person to read and were really only suited for the most
dedicated theologian. through careful and sensitive editing Claire
Weakley, Jr. has brought these sermons back to life for every
reader in the modern world to be able to enjoy and understand
Wesley's insights and teachings regarding the Sermon on the Mount.

One of the great works of American exploration literature, this account of a scientific expedition forced to survive famine, attacks, mutiny, and some of the most dangerous rapids known to man remains as fresh and exciting today as it was in 1874. The Exploration of the Colorado River and Its Canyons, recently ranked number four on Adventure magazine’s list of top 100 classics, is legendary pioneer John Wesley Powell’s first-person account of his crew’s unprecedented odyssey along the Green and Colorado Rivers and through the Grand Canyon. A bold foray into the heart of the American West’s final frontier, the expedition was achieved without benefit of modern river-running equipment, supplies, or a firm sense of the region’s perilous topography and the attitudes of the native inhabitants towards whites.
John Wesley (1703-1791) is the chief architect and source of
inspiration to the teaching commonly referred to as Christian
perfection. Among his many publications, the book that best
summarizes his teachings on holiness is A Plain Account of
Christian Perfection, as believed and taught by the Reverend Mr.
John Wesley, from the year 1725 to the year 1777. For many years
this timeless classic has been reproduced in various formats. Now,
for the first time, John Wesley's 'A Plain Account of Christian
Perfection' is being offered in a definitive Annotated Edition by
Mark K. Olson. This edition is volume one in a projected three
volume series. The Annotated Edition offers the following: The
entire text has been divided into chapters and verses for detailed
study and cross-referencing. The introduction examines in detail
when and why Wesley wrote A Plain Account. The verse by verse
commentary discusses the history and background behind the text,
offering unsurpassed explanation of Wesley's doctrine of perfect
love. Five end notes address Wesley's early doctrinal development,
the impact of Aldersgate on his perfection doctrine, many
testimonies of attaining perfection, and other relevant material
from early Methodism. Over 150 quotations from Wesley's sermons,
writings, and letters offer unlimited clarification to his views on
perfection. The insights of many Wesley scholars are included:
Albert Outler, Randy Maddox, Kenneth Collins, William Greathouse,
Thomas Oden, Harold Lindstrom, Stephen Gunter, H. Ray Dunning,
Theodore Runyon, plus many others. A timeline details every event
in Wesley's lifetime corresponding to A Plain Account. Several
exhaustive indexes are included: scripture, annotation, subject,
author, Wesley quotations, and two synonym indexes from Wesley's
Journal and A Plain Account. The Essential Reading Section further
empowers the study of Wesley's theology of perfection. Included
are: o Twenty key sermons, along with their dates and locations in
Wesley's Works (both the Jackson and Bicentennial editions).
Wesley's most important writings on perfection, listing their date
and location in his Works. 250 letters relevant to his theology of
perfection. The index includes their date and location in Wesley's
Works, with a brief description of their contents. Two additional
volumes are planned in the series. John Wesley's Theology of
Perfection will offer specialized studies for those wanting to dig
deeper into Wesley's theology of perfection. The third volume, John
Wesley's Doctrine of Christian Perfection, will present in
systematic format every facet of Wesley's views on perfection. The
projected release for both volumes is 2006 and 2007. Together,
these three volumes will present one of the most thorough and
exhaustive studies ever done on Wesley's most beloved, yet, most
controversial doctrine.
