How did a modest teaching experiment become one of the most influential forces in American Protestant faith formation and in Sunday school movement history? In this landmark religious education dissertation, Addie Grace Wardle traces the emergence and growth of the Sunday school movement within the Methodist Episcopal Church, setting it firmly inside 19th century American Methodism and the wider story of American Protestant church history. Here scholarship meets lived faith. Drawing on historical evidence, Wardle offers a precise, richly contextual Methodist church history study that reveals how Methodist Episcopal Sunday schools shaped doctrine, discipline and everyday piety. The result is a church history reference book, a classic resource for seminary students, researchers and church educators alike, illuminating early American Sunday schools as both spiritual workshop and social institution. First published in the early twentieth century, History of the Sunday School Movement in the Methodist Episcopal Church remains a foundational text for Methodist Episcopal church studies and for understanding Protestant religious education history. Its clear analysis and denominational focus make it indispensable for seminary students, historians of education, and for church educators concerned with how teaching, worship and mission intertwine. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, perfect for church libraries, academic collections and readers seeking a faithful, carefully prepared window into the development of Methodist Episcopal Sunday schools.
