Book excerpt: From its fiery revivalists to socially conscious reformers, The Wesleyan Church is a movement with a rich tradition and inspiring history in America. Robert Black and Keith Drury trace the church's heritage from its roots in European and American Methodism, through the 1968 merger of the Wesleyan Methodist and Pilgrim Holiness Churches, all the way to recent historic events. With a contemporary, conversational style, The Story of the Wesleyan Church offers a reader-friendly narrative of the growth and development of the church. Photographs throughout the book, with detailed captions, provide a journalistic map for easy access. The coauthors each represent one of the major faith streams that came together to form the church in 1968, weaving Pilgrim Holiness and Wesleyan Methodist threads into a single, colorful tapestry that both represents the history and anticipates the future of The Wesleyan Church. Let God's past faithfulness inspire your work toward the future!

This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Story of the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Victoria God. The volume is, therefore, a Jubilee Memorial, and an offering to the Methodist public. Like the Banyan tree, whose branches spread out, then incline towards, and eventually reach, the earth, where they strike root until vigorous offshoots become both a progeny and support to the parent stock, so there are innate forces in Methodism which cause it to spread out in all directions, till a cluster of Churches is formed, in time becoming selfsupporting, but yet maintaining a vital and glad connection with the parent Church. The truth of this has been verified and illustrated in this land. The plain narrative of this growth is given in this volume. The authors are not historians, but more like annalists They have not exhaustively studied the facts, interrogated the spirit, and deduced the important lessons, which Methodism in this land presents to the historian. They have compiled and put into a succinct form the facts and annals of the early Methodist story. Their plan has been, of set purpose, to be full when writing about the first and pioneer work of the Church, but to be brief and summary when relating its more recent achievements. They could not enlarge upon the recent, as they felt at liberty to do upon the earlier story. The work was too delicate, and the perspective too near for them to attempt it. They preferred sketching the more distant landscape, and have dealt with the nearer foreground in a few outlines. This may be disappointing to some, but worthy deeds and lives in recent years will be dealt with in due time, when we are considerably older, but by other hands than the writers of this volume.

Book excerpt: Marks of a Movement calls us back to the disciple-making mandate of the church through the timeless wisdom of John Wesley and the Methodist movement. With a love for history and a passion for today’s church, Winfield helps us reimagine church multiplication in a way that focuses on making and multiplying disciples for the twenty-first century. Winfield Bevins reminds us of the vital multiplication lessons from the Wesleyan movement, one of the greatest missional movements the world has ever known. He highlights the necessity of discipleship as the starting point and the abiding strategic practice that is key to all lasting missional impact in and through movements. The Methodist movement is an example of the power of multiplying movements that utilize the strategy of discipleship. Within a generation, one in thirty people who were living in Britain had become Methodists, and the movement soon became a worldwide phenomenon. We in the Western Church need a movement of historic proportions once again. What would such a multiplication movement look like for us today? We must look to the past to gain wisdom for the future. And as we look at the pages of church history, there is no better example of a multiplication movement in the West than the Methodist movement of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Marks of a Movement highlights the lessons and key insights that enable us to learn from the past and reapply this timeless, biblical wisdom for today.

Many say it was based narrowly on theological matters. Ryan Nicholas Danker suggests that politics was a major factor driving them apart.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Wesleyan Academy: At Wilbraham, Mass;; 1817-1890 To persons of intelligence and breadth of view, the record of a literary institution is not less interesting than that of a city or State. Such an institution is something more than a corporation for the accumulation of wealth. It deals with mind, in its formative period. It is a gymnasium for the harmonious unfolding of the intellectual faculties, and the more perfect discipline of thought. The training thus secured becomes an admirable furnishing for the duties of practical life. Education is wealth invested "where moth and rust do not corrupt, and where thieves do not break through and steal." Among institutions of this kind, the Wesleyan Academy at Wilbraham holds a conspicuous and honored place. The amount of work performed is very large, and the quality is of a high order. The design has been to furnish the whole man. With careful regard to intellectual drill, constant attention has been given to the moral and spiritual needs of the young. Many students have there received the inspiration and spiritual uplift, so important in working out the practical problems of life. It has been deemed important to turn out good men and women as well as good students; and, so fully has this purpose been realized, that few institutions have furnished pupils better fitted to grapple with the affairs of the world.
