ISBN: 9781426706912 / Angielski / Miękka / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. John Wesley boasted that he was a -man of one book, - but he was also a thoughtful student throughout his life and an author of many books. As breath gives life, John Wesley inhaled and exhaled the words of Scripture, shaping his thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and behavior. And like our eighteenth-century ancestor, the Bible is central to us for continued faith formation.
In this invitation to Scripture, the general editor of the Wesley Study Bible and biblical scholar, Dr. Joel Green, summarizes Wesley's understanding of key themes and topics of key books of the New...

The Homeric Epics and the Gospel of Mark
ISBN: 9780300172614 / Angielski / Miękka / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this groundbreaking book, Dennis R. MacDonald offers an entirely new view of the New Testament gospel of Mark. The author of the earliest gospel was not writing history, nor was he merely recording tradition, MacDonald argues. Close reading and careful analysis show that Mark borrowed extensively from the Odyssey and the Iliad and that he wanted his readers to recognize the Homeric antecedents in Mark's story of Jesus. Mark was composing a prose anti-epic, MacDonald says, presenting Jesus as a suffering hero modeled after but far superior to traditional Greek heroes. Much like Odysseus,...

Queer Inclusion in the United Methodist Church
ISBN: 9780415542449 / Angielski / Miękka / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The United Methodist Church has been in conflict over lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender inclusion issues since 1972.

Since then, United Methodist ministers have been forbidden to perform same-sex commitment ceremonies (and United Methodist churches forbidden to host them), a rule has been passed that non-heterosexual United Methodist ministers...

Published in 1793 6, amid controversy following the death of John Wesley (1703 91), this two-volume work vied with others for status as the most authentic biography of the Methodist leader.

The Letters of Dr. Thomas Coke
ISBN: 9781426757716 / Angielski / Miękka / 787 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For forty years on either side of the death of John Wesley in 1791, Thomas Coke was a key figure in the development of Methodism on both sides of the Atlantic. His surviving correspondence is the most personal evidence he has left us of a man who -wore his heart on his sleeve.- Coke's letters also give us contemporary insight into some of the events which began the transformation of an evangelical movement into a worldwide communion of Churches. This critical edition gives a comparison to earlier editions, as well as references to names and locations for historical study. For forty years on either side of the death of John Wesley in 1791, Thomas Coke was a key figure in the development of Methodism on both sides of the ...

19th Century Global Expansion of Methodism: What Motivated Missionaries?
ISBN: 9780992335212 / Angielski / Miękka / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A near death episode in the Rev John Smithies' earliest missionary work raises the principal question of this book, namely, what motivated Wesleyan Methodist mission in the first half of the nineteenth century? At first glance, the question may be answered simply: the quest to make Methodist converts or to Christianise indigenous inhabitants of newly conquered territories of the British Empire. However, in this reappraisal of Methodist mission in the century after John Wesley, a new perspective is explored, one which challenges these more common and simplistic interpretations.

Jimmy Creech, a United Methodist pastor in North Carolina, was visited one morning in 1984 by Adam, a longtime parishioner whom he liked and respected.
