This resource displays the variety of ways in which the Wesleys' concept of 'the religion of the heart' (that is, the affective dimension of Christian faith) has been understood and embodied in the Methodist tradition. The author then offers some practical suggestions on how a livelier piety, a more deeply felt faith, can be fostered in local congregations, without leading into anti-intellectualism, fanatical emotionalism or maudlin sentimentality. This part approaches theology, worship, preaching, pastoral care, and educational ministry.

Industry Reviews

There is much good meat here...I commend this book to readers who want to explore the heart of our tradition springing up in very varied styles in the "Many Methodisms," especially in the black and very divergent feminist forms. This is a well-produced set of essays...--Methodist Recorder
