Book excerpt: Excerpt from Itinerant Preaching in the Early Days of Methodism IN these palmy days of Methodism, when its churches are numbered by the thousand and its members by hundreds of thousands, and in our large cities it is even fashionable to be a Methodist, it is difficult for the member of a wealthy society, worshipping in a spacious modern built church, with its luxurious seats, costly organ, cultivated choir, and general surround ings indicative of wealth and refined tastes, to realize that fifty or sixty years ago it cost something more than dollars to be a Methodist, especially to be a Methodist preacher. The little plain, barn-like meet ing house, the district school house, or the town hall accommodated the devoted band, few in numbers, poor in worldly goods but rich in faith, who, with their poorly paid, poorly clad, but persistent and faithful preacher, planted the seeds of Methodism, which, watered by the dews and showers of divine grace and judiciously weeded by the itinerant husbandman, have produced the abundant harvest.

Download or read book Taking Heaven by Storm written by John H. Wigger and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1770 there were fewer than 1,000 Methodists in America. Fifty years later, the church counted more than 250,000 adherents. Identifying Methodism as America's most significant large-scale popular religious movement of the antebellum period, John H. Wigger reveals what made Methodism so attractive to post-revolutionary America. Taking Heaven by Storm shows how Methodism fed into popular religious enthusiasm as well as the social and economic ambitions of the "middling people on the make"--skilled artisans, shopkeepers, small planters, petty merchants--who constituted its core. Wigger describes how the movement expanded its reach and fostered communal intimacy and "intemperate zeal" by means of an efficient system of itinerant and local preachers, class meetings, love feasts, quarterly meetings, and camp meetings. He also examines the important role of African Americans and women in early American Methodism and explains how the movement's willingness to accept impressions, dreams, and visions as evidence of the work and call of God circumvented conventional assumptions about education, social standing, gender, and race. A pivotal text on the role of religion in American life, Taking Heaven by Storm shows how the enthusiastic, egalitarian, entrepreneurial, lay-oriented spirit of early American Methodism continues to shape popular religion today.

Download or read book She Offered Them Christ written by Paul W. Chilcote and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2001-06-15 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twentieth-century United Methodist women will meet some of their female predecessors in this fascinating account of early Methodism. For decades, the role of women in early Methodism has been overshadowed by that of their male counterparts. She Offered Them Christ is a piece of United Methodist family history that serves as a link between today's women in The United Methodist Church and their predecessors in the early history of The Methodist Church. Women preachers in John Wesley's day had his support, encouragement, and formal approval to travel and preach. Wesley valued the full involvement of women in the life of early Methodism. Unfortunately, Wesley's support for women was not shared by other male leaders of the movement; and shortly after Wesley's death, women preachers were censured. Paul W. Chilcote has collected in one volume the stories of Methodism's early women preachers - including excerpts from their diaries and journals - and introduces a segment of women's (and United Methodist) history that will enlighten today's church as it fosters an understanding of John Wesley's appreciation of and support for women in early Methodism. Today's United Methodists will find She Offered Them Christ to be a rich legacy of John Wesley's power and vision for the role of women in The Methodist Church. Wesley's message reached across the decades to provide today's United Methodists - especially women - with affirmation, encouragement, and support.
