The Democracy Of Methodism (1920)

By James Allen Geissinger

Book Overview

The Democracy of Methodism is a book written by James Allen Geissinger in 1920. The book explores the history and principles of the Methodist Church, with a focus on its democratic nature. Geissinger argues that Methodism is unique in its approach to church governance, as it emphasizes the participation of all members in decision-making processes. He examines the origins of this democratic tradition, tracing it back to the teachings of John Wesley and the early Methodist movement. The book also explores the ways in which Methodism has adapted to changing social and political contexts, and how it has maintained its commitment to democratic principles over time. Geissinger's writing is clear and accessible, making this book an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of Methodism or the role of democracy in religious organizations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
