A rich articulation of John Wesley's theology that is appreciative of the old and mindful of the new; faithful to the past and attentive to the present.This work carefully displays John Wesley's eighteenth century theology in its own distinct historical and social location; but then transitions to the twenty-first century through the introduction of contemporary issues. So conceived; the book is both historical and constructive demonstrating that the theology of Wesley represents a vibrant tradition. Cognizant of Wesley's own preferred vocabulary; Collins introduces Wesley's theological method beginning with a discussion of the doctrine of God. "In this insightful exposition the leitmotif of holy love arises out of Wesley's reflection on the nature of the divine being as well as other major doctrines." (Douglas Meeks)

Well done.By pat g.Not written by someone who experienced the civil rights movement as a 'daughter' but a very good analysis of the climate and the historical attitudes that created the barriers between races.
