It recognizes that Methodism is a ‘complex and multifaceted experiment within western Christianity’, a hybrid in ecclesial and doctrinal terms, hovering between the established Church of England and Dissent, but drawing from both in this post-Reformation pietistic movement of renewal, which ended up as a worldwide communion of churches owing their origins to the work of John and Charles Wesley and the people called Methodist in eighteenth-century England. |
