Synopsis

Proceedings of the Third Ecumenical Methodist Conference (1901) provide a detailed record of a landmark gathering.

This nonfiction volume compiles openings, essays, addresses, and discussions from a wide range of Methodist leaders and delegates, focusing on the movement’s work, its international outlook, and its plans for the twentieth century.

The book presents the scope, tone, and outcomes of the conference—showing how Methodism organized its committees, debated educational and philanthropic goals, and navigated questions of unity and collaboration across denominations. It offers a window into the era’s religious dialogue and institutional priorities, rather than a narrative of individual personalities.
  • Essays on Methodism’s position in different regions and its role in international peace, unity, and education.
  • Transcripts of addresses, discussions, and committee reports that shaped official resolutions and future work.
  • Context for the era’s ecumenical efforts, denominational fellowship, and the planning of a broader Methodist publishing and educational program.
  • A historical snapshot of early 20th-century Methodist thought, governance, and outreach.
Ideal for readers of church history, ecumenism, and Methodist studies who want a clear sense of the movement’s priorities and actions at the start of the twentieth century.
