Methodism as a collective movement

Richard P. Heitzenrater frames Methodism through the people who shaped its theology, organization, and mission, placing John Wesley within a wider account of the movement. This second edition incorporates research published in the two decades before its 2013 publication and expands coverage across subjects ranging from the means of grace and doctrinal standards to music, children, prison ministry, and itinerancy. Its attention to Charles, Susanna, and Samuel Wesley, as well as Wesley’s work in America and his roles as historian, Oxford don, and preacher, gives the survey a broad historical and institutional scope. An extensive bibliography supports further exploration.

  • Readers seeking a historical survey of the Wesleyan movement and Methodism.
  • Students or general readers interested in Methodist theology, organization, and mission.
