John Wesley and the Moral Awakening of the Common People (1703-1791) is a book written by Newell Dwight Hillis that explores the life and impact of John Wesley on the religious and social landscape of 18th century England. Wesley, the founder of Methodism, is known for his preaching and teachings that emphasized the importance of personal morality and social justice. The book begins by providing a detailed account of Wesley's early life, education, and religious experiences that led him to become a preacher. It then delves into his travels and preaching tours across England, highlighting his efforts to reach out to the common people and promote a message of personal responsibility and social reform. Hillis also explores the impact of Wesley's teachings on the lives of his followers, particularly the working-class and marginalized communities. He discusses how Wesley's emphasis on morality and self-discipline helped to transform the lives of many individuals, empowering them to take control of their own destinies and improve their social and economic conditions. Throughout the book, Hillis provides a nuanced and thoughtful analysis of Wesley's legacy, examining both his successes and failures as a religious leader and social reformer. He also situates Wesley's work within the broader historical and cultural context of 18th century England, providing readers with a rich and comprehensive understanding of the man and his impact. Overall, John Wesley and the Moral Awakening of the Common People (1703-1791) is an engaging and informative book that offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of one of the most influential religious figures in English history.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Great Men as Prophets of a New Era, by Newell Dwight Hillis.
