The Wesley Bible - NRSV
(Reviewed by Richard Clutterbuck)
In spite of my basic skepticism about ‘added value' bibles, this one does have some interesting points. It is basically the NRSV text with a running commentary provided by a large group of scholars who come, roughly speaking, from the Wesleyan/Methodist stable. Many of the names of contributors are familiar to me, and they do represent a broad spectrum of theological and biblical insight. In addition, text boxes provide applications of the text based on Wesley's own teaching, or the Methodist tradition of engagement with theological, spiritual and social issues. Some of these can read as rather trite; others are useful reminders of the distinctive way in which Methodists have read and lived the scriptures.
This would be a useful Bible for personal devotion, for a Bible study-group leader or for a local preacher. It is no substitute for a study Bible with cross references, or for a full-scale commentary, but it does what it sets outs to do and does it well.
Abingdon £32.99

This book includes John's incisive writings on the spiritual life as well as famous hymns of Charles, giving vibrant expression to the faith of the Wesleys.

Upper Room Books £4.99
Wesley's brief treatise on the important yet overlooked Christian doctrine of perfection is a "must read" for all Christians interested in growing in Christ. This book is excellent for anyone serious about their spiritual journey.
Foundations of Faith £6.99
This text seeks to set Wesley firmly in his historical context, analyzing his life, practice and theology. It shows that while there were "many Methodisms", there was a central core of spirituality and style which had a great influence on the artisan groups of men (and women), providing stability, purpose and meaning, and enabling "nobodies to become somebodies".
The author also discusses the Primitive Methodist Church, which illustrates the fact that Methodism was a wider phenomenon than the more Wesleyan varieties.
