The Methodist Church split from the Anglican Church in the 18th century primarily due to theological and social differences. John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, emphasized personal piety, a heartfelt relationship with God, and the importance of evangelism, which contrasted with the more formal practices of the Anglican Church. Additionally, Methodists sought to address the spiritual needs of the poor and marginalized, leading to tensions over church governance and the role of clergy. The split became more pronounced as Methodism developed its own distinct identity and practices.
