Description
John Wesley and Karl Marx are two of the most influential figures in modern history, according to J. Wesley Bready. This book explores the social significance of the original evangelical movement in Great Britain, challenging the idea that religion is an opiate of the people. Instead, Bready argues that "vital religion" had a profound impact on the personal lives and social and political lives of its converts. The book examines the far-reaching influence of John Wesley's preaching and teaching, from education and healthcare to prison reform and the founding of democratic institutions.
