Book Description
The proceedings of the Methodist Church Congress held in The Central Hall, Bristol — October 7–10, 1929. This volume is offered to a wider public in belief that the effort of the Congress to bring out the value and significance for the life of today of the Methodist Witness to “a free, full, present, salvation,” deserves a permanent record. For the individual reader, we venture to suggest that the book should be read with the endeavor to relate the addresses with the accompanying devotional exercises as they are presented for the proceedings of each session. It is for this purpose that the devotional services have been combined with the respective addresses. For the same reason it is also hoped that the book may provide a welcome and inspiring textbook and devotional guide for the Guilds and Study Circles.

Book Description
The Elect Methodists is the first full-length academic study of Calvinistic Methodism, a movement that emerged in the eighteenth century as an alternative to the better known Wesleyan grouping. While the branch of Methodism led by John Wesley has received significant historical attention, Calvinistic Methodism, especially in England, has not. The book charts the sources of the eighteenth-century Methodist revival in the context of Protestant evangelicalism emerging in continental Europe and colonial North America, and then proceeds to follow the fortunes in both England and Wales of the Calvinistic branch, to the establishing of formal denominations in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
