Overview

Born into a family with an Episcopalian father and a Presbyterian mother, Adam Clarke converted to Methodism after being stirred by the sermon of a traveling preacher in his little village of Moybeg, Ireland. He soon dedicated his life to the study of languages and the Bible, and became a well-respected Methodist preacher and teacher, embracing Wesleyan-Arminian positions in his writings and sermons. His six-volume commentary on the Bible was a primary theological resource for Methodists for almost two centuries, and is still widely referenced today.

Learn more about this great Methodist figure’s life and ministry with a three-volume work of memoir and biography. At the request of his friends and family, Adam Clarke penned a memoir, which makes up the first book in An Account of the Religious and Literary Life of Adam Clarke.
