Description:
"The Heart of True Sprituality: Volume 2" is a collection of the best devotional writings by Euroopeans of the Renaissance, which Joh Wesley selected for his fifty-volume "Christian Library". Frank Baker has condensed these classics to the selections that Wesley felt were "especially excellent" for study and meditation. The writers deal with the concerns of every Christian's daily life; they continue to speak to believers in every age. Though many Christians have forgotten their counsel, they offer a wealth of insight that one cannot find in modern inspirational books. This new edition, featuring the comments of Welsey himself, reintroduced the classics to earned believers of today. FRANK BAKER recently retired as professor of English church history at Duke University's Divinity School He is a leading authority in Wesley studies and editor-in-chief of a new critical edition of John Wexley's works.
