Wesleyan Eucharistic Spirituality
Author: Lorna Lock-Nah Khoo
Publisher: ATF Press
ISBN: 9781920691318
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
The central thesis of the book is that there is a distinctive Wesleyan eucharistic spirituality. Looking at Wesleys's eucharistic practices, theology and sources, the writer identifies a spirituality that has a number of key themes. These revolve around the dynamic encounter with a personal Christ, the grace filled life, the therapeutic growth towards holiness and wholenes. They provide a way of looking at life and the formation of characters which may conform to the image of the Christ. While there were several reasons for the decline of Weslyean eucharistic spirituality after the death of the Wesleys, the writer maintains that this spirituality can be rediscovered, revived and communicated in new forms so as to impact Methodists around the world who are facing the challenges of the 21st century. The author is a pastor in a Methodist Church in Singapore.

Eucharist
Author: Dr. Laurence Hull Stookey
Publisher: Abingdon Press
ISBN: 142673901X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
This book is envisioned as a follow up to Stookey's successful Baptism: Christ's Act in the Church, published in 1982. It will provide historical--theological perspective in a style that is "popular," rather than academically heavy; and, it will be ecumenical in scope, but with a concentration on Protestantism. The shared Calvinian eucharistic tradition of Presbyterians, UCC, and Methodists will be particularly explored. It will also provide material pertinent to preaching, study of the eucharist by laity, and practical local reform that implements recent revisions of denominational rites.

Wesley and the Anglicans
Author: Ryan Nicholas Danker
Publisher: InterVarsity Press
ISBN: 0830899642
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Why did the Wesleyan Methodists and the Anglican evangelicals divide during the middle of the eighteenth century? Many say it was based narrowly on theological matters. Ryan Nicholas Danker suggests that politics was a major factor driving them apart. Rich in detail, this study offers deep insight into a critical juncture in evangelicalism and early Methodism.

The Eucharist in the Reformation
Author: Lee Palmer Wandel
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521856799
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
The Eucharist in the Reformation: Incarnation and Liturgy takes up the words, 'this is my body', 'this do', and 'remembrance of me' that divided Christendom in the sixteenth century. It traces the different understandings of these simple words and the consequences of those divergent understandings in the delineation of the Lutheran, Reformed, and Catholic traditions: the different formulations of liturgy with their different conceptualizations of the cognitive and collective function of ritual; the different conceptualizations of the relationship between Christ and the living body of the faithful; the different articulations of the relationship between the world of matter and divinity; and the different epistemologies. It argues that the incarnation is at the center of the story of the Reformation and suggests how divergent religious identities were formed.

A Theology of the Sacraments Interpreted by John and Charles Wesley
Author: S T Kimbrough
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666705659
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
This volume brings together the theological interpretation of the sacraments of baptism and Holy Communion as expressed in the writings and hymns of John and Charles Wesley. •Section 1 addresses the Anglican-Methodist sacrament of baptism as interpreted by John Wesley with excerpts from his Treatise on Baptism. •Section 2 contains commentaries on six of Charles Wesley’s hymns on baptism. The commentaries seek to elucidate not only the theological emphases of the texts but also their meaning for the church today. •Section 3 moves to the sacrament of Holy Communion and includes excerpts from John Wesley’s sermon “On the Duty of Constant Communion.” Charles Wesley expresses similar views in his treatise on Holy Communion, “And upon the first Day of the Week,” and in his twenty-two stanza poem “Happy the Saints of Former Days.” •Section 4 includes the commentaries on sixteen Wesley hymns for Holy Communion. •Section 5 includes new musical settings for all of the twenty-two Wesley hymns on baptism and Holy Communion included here by twenty contemporary composers from North and South America, Asia, and Europe. In a variety of musical styles they seek to capture the various theological emphases and nuances of the texts.
