The Methodist Church separated from the Anglican Church primarily due to theological and practical differences in their approach to faith and worship. Methodists emphasized personal piety, the importance of a heartfelt conversion experience, and social justice, which often contrasted with the more formal and institutional practices of the Anglican Church. Additionally, John Wesley's focus on evangelism and small-group fellowship led to a distinct identity that ultimately encouraged the formation of a separate denomination. This separation was formalized in the 18th century as Methodism grew into a movement with its own organizational structure and beliefs.
