Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book documents and examines how American Methodism was originally conceived and how it has developed over the centuries since the original 1784 Christmas Conference. It explores the relationship between the itinerant and local preachers, and the bishops, elders and deacons, in terms of governance. The author also discusses how the institution of lay delegates has shaped policy and practice, and how various schisms and unions have affected the Methodist presence in the United States. The author argues that the history of Methodism in the United States has been shaped by a dialectic between centripetal and centrifugal forces, with the former�"represented by the episcopacy and the General Conference�"working to maintain unity and the latter�"represented by the local preachers and the annual conferences�"working to promote diversity. This dialectic has been a source of both strength and tension within American Methodism, and it continues to shape the denomination today. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American Methodism or the history of American religion more generally. 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 9781333436414_0
