9780484713283: The Separation of the Methodists From the Church of England (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

Explore how the Methodists split from the Church of England, driven by social change and bold organization.

This historical study argues that the separation was shaped as much by society as by doctrine. It traces how a large, diverse movement formed its own practices, while key events and rules helped cement the break. The work blends evidence from journals, biographies, and contemporary writings to show why central leadership and new meeting houses mattered as the movement grew.

  • See how early societies formed, expanded, and kept faith with their goals
  • Learn about the finances, buildings, and “Conference Plan” that gave leaders control
  • Understand the wider social and political context that made separation possible
  • Discover how the movement organized preaching, worship, and community life
Ideal for readers of religious history and early modern England, this edition offers a clear view of the forces behind a historic shift in English church life.
