Reclaiming the Wesleyan Tradition offers a short course in the practical teachings of 18th century British preacher John Wesley. Instead of spending time writing abstract theology, Wesley's theological insights are found in his sermons, which have not been the easiest pieces of literature to read since they are written in the voice of an 18th century Anglican priest. The authors of this book make the language real, providing commentary, guidance, and a most important glossary. They also suggest daily readings and ways to engage in the study within a small group, which is a very Wesleyan approach as well. My group and I gained fresh insights into our own lives of Christian faith from this 18th century preacher.
