Christian desillusionment with an imperfect world, he felt, could be channeled into social concerns, where it would provide "motivation for reform in light of a more perfect way". The authors see modern liberationists as being sparked by a similar desire for reform. They relate the Wesleyan heritage to today's world by individually probing the social implications of Wesley's ministry-his attacks on economic oppression, his championship of antislavery, and his encouragement of the contributions of women in Wesleyan societies N2 - Wesley and the theologies of liberation; Wesley's doctrine of sanctification from a liberationist perspective; Justification, sanctification, and the liberation of the person; Methodism and social change in Britain; John Wesley on economics; Holiness and radicalism in nineteenth-century America; Whither Evangelicalism?; Wesleyan movement and women's liberation; Sanctification and liberation in the black religious tradition; Methodist witness and the African situation; Liberating pastoral for the rich ER -
