A leading figure in the Evangelical Revival in eighteenth-century
England, John Wesley (1703 1791) is the founding father of
Methodism and, by extension, of the holiness and Pentecostal
movements. This Cambridge Companion offers a general, comprehensive
introduction to Wesley s life and work, and to his theological and
ecclesiastical legacy. Written from various disciplinary
perspectives, including history, literature, theology, and
religious studies, this volume will be an invaluable aid to
scholars and students, including those encountering the work and
thought of Wesley for the first time.
One of the most surprising developments in contemporary Methodist
theology is the degree to which leading Methodist and Wesleyan
systematic theologians are reengaging John Wesley, finding his
works instructive, provocative, and stimulating for their own
theological reflection. Such a broad and purposeful dialogue with
Wesley by theologians of the Wesleyan heritage is unprecedented in
this century, and much rarer in the previous century than is
popularly believed. This volume presents a set of original essays
that represent and embody this new engagement allowing the reader
to see how several prominent theologians are self-consciously
reexamining and reappropriating their theological tradition.
A collection of essays by leading Wesleyan/Methodist scholars
Richard Heitzenrater, Roberta Bondi, David Lowes Watson, Theodore
Runyon, Jean Miller Schmidt, W. Stephen Gunter, and Randy L.
Maddox. These essays demontrate the specific impact Wesley's
Aldersgate had not only on his life and theology, but also on
subsequent generations of Methodists.
