Synopsis

Most of us need to understand why we are and wish to remain Methodists or other Wesleyans. We have many personal reasons for this, but if we learn enough about John Wesley, we will see that one of the best reasons is that he got us off to a really good start. He showed us how to be sane, well informed, intellectually honest, scripturally informed, socially engaged, and deeply spiritual members of the living body of Christ. Our task now is to sustain and develop what he started. John Wesley was an incredible person both in what he did and what he thought. Viewed against the background of the Christian scholars of his day and those who went before him, his thinking was immensely creative, insightful, and at times downright radical. From this book you will learn more about what he thought than about what he did, but both will be explored. Most of us know a little bit about what he did, but we know almost nothing about what he thought.When you find out about them, you may be both astonished and very pleasantly surprised. So much of what he had to say is as fresh and relevant to us today as it was to so many others during his own lifetime.
