Overview

Teachers, students, and followers of Methodist denominations have long debated the nature of the monumental contributions John Wesley made to their faith. Their debates, however, have largely come to the same conclusions, focusing the lens of analysis on the elements of Arminianism in Wesley's life and writings while overlooking the elements of Universalism that are present.

John Wesley and Universalism widens the focus of this debate and takes into consideration the process, content, and structure of Wesley's thinking to explicate the universalistic underpinnings that other scholars have held in the periphery of their analyses for centuries. An in-depth and insightful text, it examines Wesley's empirical and pragmatic methodology and outlines his concepts of faith development and spiritual growth, highlighting the universalistic elements and patterns in his work and emphasizing their importance in the history-and future-of the Methodist movement.

Replete with references to history, philosophy, psychology, and theology, John Wesley and Universalism breathes new life into many of Wesley's most meaningful messages and is sure to bring the fundamental principles of his work to the surface for a new generation of scholars. For those looking to broaden their spiritual or academic horizons, this title should not be missed.
