Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the motivations and mindset of the Methodist movement, which, in its early days, challenged the moral and religious climate of 18th-century England. The author argues that Methodism emerged as a response to the lax standards of the Church of England and broader societal and intellectual trends that had led to irreligion and apathy. Exploring a wealth of historical documents, the book analyzes the Methodists' unconventional practicesâ"including field preaching and the use of itinerant lay preachersâ"their beliefs, and their struggle for identity. It also sheds light on the tensions between the Methodists and the established Church, examining the controversies and doctrinal differences that ultimately drove the two factions apart. This insightful examination offers a nuanced understanding of Methodism's origins and its tumultuous relationship with the Church of England, providing a valuable lens through which to view the religious landscape of 18th-century England.
