Excerpt from Methodism and It's Methods
The present volume has grown out of the observations, studies, and reflections of an itinerant ministry of thirty - one years. Consequently, whatever defects may be discovered, either in the reasoning or the writing, haste cannot be pleaded in extenuation of them. He that has no love for the Church of Christ, in all its branches, will find little here that he will care to read. They who have not so pondered over its past history as to feel at least some degree of solicitude in regard to the future, their hearts, at times, like Eli's, trembling for the ark of God, will be liable to misconstrue both the aim and the spirit of these pages.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the history of the Methodist Episcopal Church from its origins in the 18th century to the present day, focusing on the principles that shaped its organization and its ongoing development. The author argues that the Methodist Episcopal Church's unique form of government, its itinerant ministry, and its emphasis on personal experience and evangelism grew out of the broader religious and social context of the time. The book examines the challenges and controversies that the church has faced over the years, including debates over slavery, the role of women in the church, and the proper balance between central authority and local autonomy. Ultimately, the author argues that the Methodist Episcopal Church's success and longevity can be attributed to its ability to adapt and change while remaining true to its core values and principles.
