Description
Leaning Both Ways at Once: A Methodist Evangelistic Mission at the Intersection of Church and World
This book explores how the Methodist tradition can continue to embody its evangelistic mission in a way that is both faithful to its roots and relevant to the world today. Conklin-Miller argues that effective evangelism requires living in tension between the church and the world, finding a balance between the holiness of the church as a community and its engagement with the wider world.
The author suggests that this approach constitutes a broader reframing of evangelistic mission, one that also shapes the identity and agency of the church within the Wesleyan tradition. A Methodist missional ecclesiology is proposed as a vision for how the church can continue to be a people sent out into the world as servants, advocates, and witnesses.
