Synopsis
Understanding the rise of Methodist leadership in America and how a unique form of church government took shape.
This historical study traces how Methodism in the United States moved from a Wesleyan, England‑centered system to an independent Episcopal structure. It explains how the church adopted an itinerant, general superintendency and how annual and General Conferences shaped its laws, elections, and administration. The book discusses key milestones, debates, and the constitutional checks that preserved the organization’s governance.
- Learn the origins of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the role of Wesley, Asbury, and Coke.
- See how the Christmas Conference of 1784 established a new church form and name.
- Explore how the General Conference and annual conferences interact to create, modify, or restrict church law.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical and administrative analysis of the relationship between the episcopacy and the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The author meticulously examines the evolution of the Church's governance, dividing its history into five distinct periods. The book offers a comprehensive study of the development of the Methodist episcopacy, the role of the General Conference, and the legal framework that defines their relationship. The author argues that the episcopacy is an essential element of Methodist polity, and that any attempt to alter or abolish it would require the consent of the entire eldership of the Church. The book provides a valuable resource for understanding the historical and legal foundations of Methodist governance, and offers insights into the ongoing debates about the role of bishops in the Church. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
