I have been reading "This We Believe" by William H. Willimon. I have found this a refreshing and challenging summary of Wesleyan theology and practice, and was pleasantly surprised by the end of his section on salvation:
"Here is the faint stirring of a Wesleyan ecological theology.
This world is not some smutty, sorry, decadent place from which we hope one day to be delivered. This world is God's, subject of God's love and providential care. The world shall be restored. Creation shall come to more closely resemble that which God intended in Genesis. And when we work with God, we are priveleged to be agents of that restoration, those who offer the world a foretaste of the world's final destiny in God."
Any thoughts??
