Vicki Tolar Burton argues that John Wesley wanted to make ordinary
Methodist men and women readers, writers, and public speakers
because he understood the powerful role of language for spiritual
formation. His understanding came from his own family and
education, from his personal spiritual practices and experiences,
and from the evidence he saw in the lives of his followers. By
examining the intersections of literacy, rhetoric, and spirituality
as they occurred in early British Methodism-and by exploring the
meaning of these practices for class and gender-the author provides
a new understanding of the method of Methodism.
