Embodying Wesley’s Catholic Spirit

Theology

“Methodists may be better known for their commitment to apostolic mission than to catholic doctrine. Yet, Wesley cared deeply about both, and this book calls those who follow in his steps to do the same. These essays install a wide-angle lens on Wesleyan theological vision, so that the People called Methodist might behold their true location within the Church catholic, serving the renewal of a Wesleyan way, strengthening the connections between theology and practice, doctrine and discipline.”

How Youth Ministry Can Change Theological Education -- If We Let It

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Attention, seminary presidents and divinity school professors, senior pastors and denominational leaders: read this book! Read it not because it offers the secret of institutional survival (it doesn't) but because of the hope it speaks for the work of theological education and the ministry of the church in the world. Having learned from years of experimentation within seminary-embedded youth theology programs, these authors offer crucial resources to renew and to expand our theological and pedagogical imagination.”

The Great Digital Commission

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Caleb Lines has long seen what we all now know to be true: congregational leaders must engage with social media, faithfully shaping the church’s presence in the online world. But to be clear, this book is neither simply a how-to manual nor an abstract academic exercise on the subject. For those seeking thoughtful, theological, practical engagement with questions of ecclesial presence and witness in the complex context of social media, this book is for you.”

The Saving Mysteries of Jesus Christ

Theology

“This book helps people become Wesleyans and it helps Wesleyans understand how they are truly Christians alongside other Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox siblings. More than explaining interesting ideas about Jesus, these authors invite the reader into a contemplative space to perceive a mystery that our words cannot finally capture. Meant to be read in the context of a thoughtful congregation or community, this book will help Wesleyan Christians think more carefully and discern more deeply the beauty and meaning of being a people formed in the mysteries of Christ.”
