- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 October 2007Rich, wonderful documentary access to the lived, embodied theology of early American Methodism and to its evangelistic, expressive, ecstatic, disciplined vernacular. Through verse, testimony, journal entries, official actions, reports, and sermon excerpts, this book gives voice to Methodist doctrine, Christology, soteriology, anthropology, ethics, and eschatology, and exhibits Methodist practices, testimony, preaching, piety, worship, community, discipline, order, and formation. A valuable resource.... Russell E. Richey, Candler School of Theology, Emory University. (As quoted on rear cover of book)
