In this book, historian Nigel Scotland examines ten powerful revival movements that hugely impacted the social life and culture of large sections of America and the British Isles. Revivals represent a high point of Christian experience, renewing and empowering the life and worship of Christian communities. In consequence they draw large numbers of new people to personal faith in Christ, which in turn brings lasting and positive change to social life and culture. In this book special attention is given to the ways in which vibrant Christian faith challenged racism, fought and overcame slavery, helped to birth trade unions, campaigned for temperance, led to a rapid growth in education, from Sunday schools to universities, provided equal opportunities for women, and renewed family life and relationships.

The Wesleyan-Methodist movement entered American history as a fragment of British Methodism. It quickly took on a new identity in the early republic and grew into a vibrant denomination in the nineteenth century. The transitions from the rugged pioneer religion modeled by Bishop Francis Asbury to the urbane religion of industrial America was by design the goal of influential leaders of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Nathan Bangs was perhaps one of the most significant of such leaders. He rose from obscurity to the ranks of power and influence by refining patterns of worship, expanding denominational publishing, and structuring ministerial education. This study is concerned with the development of respectability in American Methodism. It also explores questions on how Bangs and other leaders dealt with in-house conflicts on issues related to race, slavery, and the poor.

Excerpt from The Methodist Magazine and Quarterly Review, 1830, Vol. 12 For this class of periodicals there is certainly a greater vacancy in the department of theological journals, at the present day, than in any other; and particularly in our own denomination. There i danger, too, of satisfying ourselves, on one hand, with light and transient reading, and, on the other, with light and transient writing. Lve yet need a journal which shall draw forth the most matured efforts of our best writers, whether in the ministry, or among other intelligent and literary contributors where also thev may have room for ampler and more exact discussion, in a record 11 hich shall enduie for the inspection of posterity. '1 here are very many also m the wide circle of our friends, who have both taste and adequate means, for patronizing such a work; and one such is highly desirable, as well tor their satisfaction, as to lead others to the cultivation of a snnilar taste. Much of the matter, it is calcu lated, will be origi 1111; yet it is our intention also to 111 ail ourselves of the. Best articles that can be selected, tiom pe1iodieals, or other publications, of our own country or of foreign countries; and to present them to our readers either entire, or in part, or in the form of abridgments, compilations, or abstrae as may be deem ed most conducive both to their rational pleasure, and to their solid and last ing benefit. Theology, enibraeing'those evangelical views of truth so essential to genuine and enlightened piety, will occupy a pro minent place in this work'. Yet the general interests of humanity, morality, literature, and science, shall not be overlooked. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

As E. Brooks Holifield notes in his introduction, “John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist movement, would have relished the opportunity to write this volume. He recognized the power of religious traditions, and he thought that issues of health and medicine were profoundly interwoven into the texture of religious faith. All ten themes that have concerned [this series] - healing and well-being, suffering and madness, passages and sexuality, dying and caring, morality and dignity - were among the topics that Wesley believed should interest Christians.” In the attempt to show how a Wesleyan understanding of theology might inform a modern Methodist sensibility, the author has structured his treatment of Health and Medicine in the Methodist Tradition around the polarities of health and healing, holiness and happiness, penalty and promise, love and law, restraint and responsibility, and possibility and limit. These are not to be construed as opposites or as mutually exclusive extremes. Each member of each pair both checks and enriches the other. They provide a way of establishing boundaries; they mark the way of a journey - “the way of salvation,” or the way of love.
