The true story of America’s first superstar evangelist that “fills a significant gap in the history of revivalism” (The New York Times Book Review). Once she answered the divine calling, Aimee Semple McPherson rose fast from unfulfilled housewife in Rhode Island to “miracle woman”—the most enigmatic, pioneering, media-savvy Christian evangelist in the country. She preached up and down the United States, traveling in a 1912 Packard with her mother and her children—and without a man to fix flat tires. Her ministry was rolled out in tents, concert halls, boxing rings, and speakeasies. She prayed for the healing of hundreds of thousands of people, founded the Foursquare Church, and built a Pentecostal temple in Los Angeles of Hollywood-epic dimensions (Charlie Chaplin advised her on sets). But this is not just a story of McPherson’s cult of fame. It’s also the story about its price: exhaustion, insomnia, nervous breakdowns, sexual scandals, loneliness, and the notorious public disgrace that nearly destroyed her. A “powerhouse biography of perhaps the most charismatic and controversial woman in modern religious history,” Sister Aimee is, above all, the life story of a unique woman, of the power of passion that rejects compromise, and a faith that would not be shaken (Kirkus Reviews). “[Told] with insight, empathy and lyrical power . . . Daniel Mark Epstein sees the facts, and feels the mystery, and he has written a remarkable book.” —Los Angeles Times
Aimee Semple McPherson was the most flamboyant and controversial minister in the United States between the world wars, building a successful megachurch, a mass media empire, and eventually a political career to resurrect what she believed was America's Christian heritage. Sutton's definitive study reveals the woman as a trail-blazing pioneer, her life marking the beginning of Pentecostalism's advance to the mainstream of American culture.
A religious leader who strongly identified with ordinary folk, she attracted hundreds of thousands of loyal followers throughout the United States and Canada.
Messages delivered during healing meetings In 1915, Aimee Semple McPherson began traveling around the United States, holding tent revivals, with some crowds reaching well over thirty thousand people. The tent revivals of this vivacious and spirited speaker would last weeks in any given city across the country. She used a brass band, choirs, and props of all sorts in her sermons. During McPherson’s ministry, tens of thousands of people were healed when she prayed for them, but she herself took no credit for the healings, instead giving full credit to God. She insisted that divine healing was not found in the emergency room, the world of entertainment, or the scientist’s laboratory; it was a church sacrament, accessible by faith and devotion alone. Divine Healing Sermons is a collection of the messages McPherson preached during her amazing ministry. They remain as powerful and accessible today as they were a century ago.
A fascinating woman…a charismatic religious leader! Aimee Semple McPherson captured the imagination of an entire nation, entertained celebrities and royalty, became one of the most powerful and influential women in American history. Founder of the Church of the Foursquare Gospel, known around the world for her Sunday night radio broadcasts and mammoth crusades, she suddenly disappeared with her married radio station manager.
Roberts Liardon chronicles the lives and legacies of men and women who were empowered by the Holy Spirit to bring worldwide revivals.
The life of Jesus was wrapped up in the Holy Spirit. He was conceived of the Spirit, baptized with the Spirit, led of the Spirit, and performed His works by the power of the Spirit. When He departed this world, He left His disciples to carry on, commanding them do the works that He had done. Would He declare that His own works were done by the power of the Holy Spirit who dwelt within Him, and then tell His disciples do the same work without that same power? No! As Elijah's mantle fell from his shoulders and was donned by the waiting disciple Elisha, so Christ, sent down from the throne of God the Holy Spirit, the life-giving Third Person of the Trinity that He might abide within His disciples. They, too, would preach the gospel with signs and wonders and be able to say as did their Master: "He that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works." In a day when the foundations of society are deteriorating, many people are looking to the church for an answer. The true gospel of Christ proclaimed in the fullness of the Holy Spirit provides an answer and a hope. May a divine flame be kindled in your heart as you read The Holy Spirit.
Devout and charismatic, Aimee Semple McPherson led millions in prayer. A pioneer in female travelling evangelism, McPherson was believed to possess a healing touch. Great masses of the sick and the burdened gathered from far and wide to hear her sermons and perhaps to be cured by the miracle worker. This is the story of one woman's extraordinary life full of missionary adventures in the Far East, fervent radio preaching, empire building, and spectacular pulpit performances.
