Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins of Methodist ecclesiastical polity, tracing the history of the Conference idea from the first informal gathering of Methodist ministers in 1744. The author shows how this early group, composed of both ordained clergy and lay preachers, gradually evolved into a fully-fledged governing body with the authority to make decisions for the entire Methodist movement. Against the backdrop of 18th-century Methodism, this work explores the complex relationship between John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, and the Conference. It examines how Wesley's initial reluctance to cede power gave way to a recognition of the need for a self-governing body that could perpetuate Methodism beyond his lifetime. Through a detailed analysis of archival records, the book sheds light on the theological and practical challenges faced by the early Methodists as they sought to establish a viable and enduring ecclesiastical structure. The author's insights into the interplay between charismatic leadership and institutional governance offer a valuable perspective on the development of Methodism. Ultimately, this book is a significant contribution to the study of Methodist history, providing a comprehensive account of the origins and evolution of the Conference, and highlighting its pivotal role in shaping the Methodist movement. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781331968887_0
