Book Description:

John Wesley insisted that Christians might, in this lifetime, become perfect in love or intention. With this belief, the Holiness Movement was born. This book examines the movements influence as it developed in North America and swept across the globe. In keeping with the movement's own insistence that personal experience is a primary, though not exclusive, source of theological authority this volume closely examines the people who shaped and sustained the movement.
