It is not everyday that I would recommend two very expensive resources, but the two books above are part of my ongoing efforts to make sense of our Methodist/Wesleyan heritage and the wider evangelical tradition. They are highly accessible in terms of readership, and they help to place in a broader context the cross-currents that flow beneath the surface of these streams of Christian faith and practice. The Handbook of Methodist Studies is particularly useful, especially in light of the current discussions surrounding what it means to be a "Wesleyan" or "Methodist" Christian.
