Of special focus in this reflective overview of Wesley's theological convictions is highlighting the practical-theological dynamics of Wesley's work and suggesting possible implications for contemporary attempts to recover theology as a practical discipline. Another distinctive focus of this work is a systematic consideration of the integration of theological emphases traditionally divergent in Eastern and Western Christianity. The author also closely examines the consistency of Wesley's thought throughout his career.
My father in law is a Methodist minister. This book was fascinating to read because Wesley has influenced the evangelical movement. I appreciated learning the history of Wesley's positions. I also appreciated learning more about the eastern/western theological perspectives.
