| Publisher Description: American Methodist Worship is the most comprehensive history of worship among John Wesley's various American spiritual descendents that has ever been written. It will be a foundational book for anyone who wishes to understand how American Methodists have worshipped.-Sacramental Life This groundbreaking study will help to reshape the way that we think about early American Methodist worship and how it connects to more recent trends.-- The Journal of Religion Karen Westerfield Tucker's exhaustive examination of the history of American Methodist worship may indeed launch a new genre in liturgical historiography: denominational liturgical histories. The genius of this contribution is its comprehensiveness in examining for the first time the worship life of an American ecclesiological tradition.--Doxology |
