American theologian Kenneth J. Collins is an internationally recognized scholar in the field of Historical Theology who has an ecumenical heart and who has produced a number of works in Christian Spirituality to reach a broad and energetic following. A popular and engaging speaker, Collins has given lectures in England, South Korea, Japan, Russia, Estonia, Costa Rica, Australia and elsewhere. Some of his works have been translated into Russian, Portuguese, Korean, Estonian and Chinese. He is a graduate of Princeton Seminary (Th.M.) and Drew University (Ph.D.) and has written and edited more than seventeen books and scores of articles. He currently serves as a professor of Historical Theology and Wesley Studies at Asbury Theological Seminary.
This book by Kenneth J. Collins is in line with his other books. They are of excellent quality with a depth of scholarship. This is one of his earlier books and it shows because he has gotten even better over time. This look at the theology of Wesley as found in the Standard Sermons is a gift to Wesley lovers and should be kept and read as such. Enjoyable!

Another homerun for Collins. Wesley is portrayed in the correct light. He is allowed to speak for himself. This is a wonderful companion to Collin's new edition of Wesley's sermons.
