Excerpt from The Itinerancy: Its Power and Peril
The subject of this book and the book itself greatly interest me. The graphic account of the itinerancy - what it is and what it does - is a Splendid tonic for the discouraged blue Monday Methodist preacher, and invokes a spirit of thank fulness that the early call to another denomina tion was not heeded. The manner in which the itinerancy accomplishes the efficient distribution of the ministers, putting every man just where he belongs, brings one to the enthusiastic conclusion that it is best not only for the preacher, but also for the people and for the Kingdom. To it must be attributed that brotherhood among Methodist preachers, unlike that of any other denomination.
While Methodism is of the people and belongs to the people, yet vast power is concentrated in the hands of the episcopacy, though somewhat modified by time and the increasing responsibility of the bishops to the General Conference. Any study of the superintendency would necessarily include the general superintendency of the bishops, and the special superintendency of the district superintendents.
