Murray presents a thrilling biography of John Wesley, chronicling Wesley's life and thought as well as detailing the story of those who carried on his legacy. Although Wesley never found a dynamic leader to guide the movement after his death, Murray traces the later Methodist history, following such leaders as William Bramwell, Gideon Ouseley, and Thomas Collins. The study concludes with studies into Wesley's understanding of justification and Christian perfection, and Methodism's understanding of the Holy Spirit and Scripture. A fascinating study combining both history and biography.
