Sinopsis

Wesley and His Work explores how Methodism became a living, mission-driven faith among English-speaking nations. This volume gathers addresses that highlight John Wesley’s lasting influence, the movement’s focus on Christian life over creeds, and its practical reach from Georgia to the world. It presents Methodism as a vibrant, historic faith rooted in personal experience, holiness of life, and public proclamation.

This edition frames Methodism as more than a creed. It shows how the movement’s emphasis on scriptural holiness and lived faith shaped its spread, its churches, and its educational efforts. You’ll encounter discussions on Wesley’s vision, the role of doctrine in everyday life, and the church’s commitment to reaching people with the gospel.


  • How Methodism defines its core mission: to spread scriptural holiness through lively faith and practice

  • Accounts of Wesley’s influence in Georgia and the broader South, and how geography shaped the church

  • Clarifications on Methodism’s approach to doctrine, church government, and unity

  • Reflections on the church’s emphasis on Christian experience and spiritual renewal



Ideal for readers of religious history, Methodist readers, and anyone curious about how a faith tradition shapes mission, education, and everyday life.

Excerpt from Wesley and His Work: Or Methodism and Missions; A Volume of Addresses

The author dares not hope that his contribution to these great ends can be very great; but he desires to make such contribution as he may be able, whether great or small. The object he desires to accomplish is worthy, however insignificant may be the effort he makes to achieve it. His attempt may lead others to the same studies who will be able to treat the noble theme of Wesley and His Work in a manner more worthy of it.

Excerpt from Wesley and His Work: Or Methodism and Missions; A Volume of Addresses

The addresses contained in this volume were delivered at various times and places, but between them there is a bond of connection in the life and work of Wesley and the missionary work of Methodism which took its rise from his labors. There is, therefore, a unity of thought in them which justifies their publication together in a single volume bearing the title "Wesley and His Work; or, Methodism and Missions."

In this form they are sent forth with the hope that they will promote in our times the revival of the evangelical religion which John Wesley and his associates sought to propagate in their day, and contribute to the spread of it throughout the world. It is hoped also that they will bring to the attention of those who read them the fact that Methodism is one of the strongest and most vital bonds by which the English-speaking nations - the preaching and missionary nations of the present era - are bound together.

The author dares not hope that his contribution to these great ends can be very great; but he desires to make such contribution as he may be able, whether great or small. The object he desires to accomplish is worthy, however insignificant may be the effort he makes to achieve it. His attempt may lead others to the same studies who will be able to treat the noble theme of "Wesley and His Work" in a manner more worthy of it.
