Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Pages are sunned. Previous owner has signed inside page. Dust jacket is in poor condition with significant tearing and scuffing. Front book flap is price clipped. Dust jacket is now enclosed in a glossy protective cover. First edition. The origin, progress and development of Methodism in the first century of Victoria's history as written in 1935. "This is not a dry, matter-of-fact history, but a colourful cavalcade of Methodism moving through the varied landscape of Victoria. Every page has a character to describe, an incident to relate; a tale of devotion, heroism and sacrifice to tell." It includes information on the establishment of various parishes and churches, Victoria's contributions to global missions, and biographical sketches of significant figures. Chapters: How Methodism Was Born: Background on the movement's origins. How Methodism Came to Australia: The arrival of the first missionaries. Methodism Comes to Victoria: The specific establishment of the faith in the Port Phillip District.

William Butters and the Roaring Fifties: The church's response to the Victorian gold rush. Walter Powell—An Early Methodist Merchant: The role of laypeople and commerce. Daniel Draper—A Master Builder: The leadership of the man who oversaw significant church construction. From Collins Street to Wesley Church: The evolution of Melbourne's central Methodist presence. Revival and Challenge: Periods of spiritual growth and conflict. The Romance and Realism of Circuit Life: The daily experience of travelling ministers. The Home Mission Enterprise: Expanding the church within Victoria. Victoria and the World Task: Global missionary efforts supported by the Victorian church. The Church and Young People: Youth ministries and engagement. The Church and Education: Involvement in schools and colleges. The Church and the Community: Social work and public influence. How Five Churches Became One: The story of the Methodist union in 1902. Some Men and Women of the Century: Profiles of influential members.
