"Every renewal of the church has been ignited by a renewed encounter with scripture. Who better to provoke a fresh encounter than John Wesley, 'man of one book'? Green and Watson have assembled an exciting, Wesleyan encounter with scripture in this wonderful book. Quite a gift for the renewal of the church." --Will Willimon, Bishop, North Alabama Conference of the United Methodist Church and Professor of the Practice of Christian Ministry, Duke Divinity School "Green and Watson are superb scholars who have assembled an excellent array of diverse contributors. The role of scripture in the Wesleyan theological tradition is more often assumed than examined, and this insightful book will go a long way toward correcting that deficiency." --William B. Lawrence, Dean and Professor of American Church History, Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University
