Breakers! Methodism Adrift (1913)

Breakers! Methodism Adrift is a book written by Leander W. Munhall in 1913. The book is a critique of the Methodist Church in America during the early 20th century, focusing on what Munhall saw as a drift away from the traditional values and beliefs of the church. Munhall was a prominent Methodist minister and evangelist, and his book reflects his concerns about the direction of the church at the time.In the book, Munhall argues that the Methodist Church had become too focused on social and political issues, and had lost sight of its core mission of spreading the Gospel. He also criticizes the church for its lack of discipline and its failure to address moral issues within its own ranks. Munhall is particularly critical of what he sees as a growing acceptance of liberal theology and the rejection of traditional Christian beliefs.Despite its critical tone, Breakers! Methodism Adrift is also a call to action for Methodists to return to their roots and recommit themselves to the teachings of the Bible. Munhall argues that the church can only be saved by returning to a focus on evangelism and personal holiness, and by rejecting the influence of secular culture.Overall, Breakers! Methodism Adrift is an important historical document that reflects the concerns and debates within the Methodist Church during the early 20th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American Christianity, and provides insight into the challenges faced by religious institutions as they navigate changing social and cultural landscapes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
