Luther and Wesley in the Vineyard of Souls
An Ecumenical Harvest for the Spiritual Life
Description
William P. McDonald launches a comparative study of the theology and everyday ministry of Martin Luther and John Wesley.
In this book, McDonald recounts the spiritual lives and writings of two of Christianity's foundational theologians, revealing a disparate, yet nonetheless generative, conversation about what it means to live a Christian life. Across eight chapters, McDonald provides a series of theological snapshots which maintain the nuances inherent to Luther and Wesley's alternative, Christian theologies. This approach illuminates a productive dialogue on issues which plague many contemporary believers, including spiritual despair, sinfulness, and access to God. Fundamentally, this book functions as a work of ecumenism and invites believers across Christian denominations to find community through the shared challenge of seeking and wrestling with faith.
