This book was released on 2018-05-09 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aimee Semple McPherson, founder of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, was perhaps the most famous Pentecostal evangelist of the early twentieth century. Thousands attended her meetings. But with her radio sermons and syndicated articles, she reached millions both in the United States and abroad. Much has been written about McPherson's fascinating life and her impact on millions of followers. Yet surprisingly, her writings and sermons have never been compiled and published-until now. The Collected Sermons and Writings of Aimee Semple McPherson arranges McPherson's body of work chronologically, allowing readers to see how her style, subject matter, and emphases changed as her ministry developed. As a Pentecostal evangelist, McPherson based her messages on the scriptural understanding that as Jesus is unchanging, the miracles and spiritual gifts of the early church should be part of modern Christian practice. Accordingly, her writings focus on God's miraculous healing, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the miracle of speaking in tongues. A valuable resource for religious scholars, McPherson's collective writings contain wisdom and inspiration for the everyday Christian, while also providing an insightful look into the devoted mind of one of the twentieth century's most influential women.

AS I SAW IT IN MY VISION. HE following message was given under the inspiration of the Holy (ihost, in London, England. The text, which was given by the Spirit was as follows: Lost-- "That which the Palmerworm hath left hath the Locust eaten; and that which the Locust hath left hath the Cankerworm eaten; and that which the Cankerworm hath left hath the Caterpillar eaten: ' Joel 1:4. AND RESTORED. "And I will restore to you all the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, My great army which I sent among you." Joel 2:25. While in London, England, waiting for the boat in which to embark for China, I was asked by a certain preacher one day if I would not speak to his congregation that night. Inquiring of the Lord, I felt it was His will, and told the man that I would go. That evening a beautiful limousine, with liveried attendants, called for me, and I entered with weak and self-conscious steps, crying: "Oh, Lord, do help me do Thy will tonight." On the way I gazed upon the beautiful streets and buildings, till at last the car stopped in front of an imposing and spacious edifice. As we went up the steps and into the side door of this immense building, I remember taking a hurried glance at its size and vaguely wondering whether some small room therein was used for a mission. Great was my surprise therefore, when being led through the door and on the platform. I found that this whole building was packed with people, and I was to speak to them at once. My attendant whispered into my ear that we were late, and then I heard the voice of the man on the platform saying: "Now our sister will speak to us and bring the message." Before I realized it, I was standing, dazed and confused...
Download or read book Divine Healing Sermons written by Aimee Semple McPherson and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2013-12-30 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Sister Aimee written by Daniel Mark Epstein and published by HMH. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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

Download or read book Defining Moments written by Bill Johnson and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2016-01-08 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Prophetic Anointing for Today Defining Moments is a fascinating look at the remarkable ways in which God has used ordinary people to change history. But it is about more than history alone—it illuminates the present and unveils the future. Prophetic in nature, the book reveals how God wants to work in each of our lives to fulfill His purposes—today, tomorrow, and in the years to come. The stories in this collection of God-encounters carry a prophetic anointing for all who have ears to hear. Author Bill Johnson highlights the significant traits and contributions of many well-known revival leaders, including John Wesley, Charles Finney, Dwight L. Moody, Maria Woodworth-Etter, Carrie Judd Montgomery, Smith Wigglesworth, John G. Lake, Evan Roberts, Rees Howells, Aimee Semple McPherson, Kathryn Kuhlman, Randy Clark, and Heidi Baker. He explains the impact these leaders can have on us today as we respond to the life-changing truths revealed through their life stories. There is power in knowing the testimonies of men and women who experienced God in a defining moment and said yes to His unique call on their lives. It is a power that inspires us to hunger for God in such a way that we, too, will have an encounter with Him that launches us into the world of the “impossible,” enabling us to fulfill a greater measure of our destiny. Read this book with a sense of readiness, and watch what happens.

Book excerpt: From bestselling author Gary Krist, the story of the metropolis that never should have been and the visionaries who dreamed it into reality Little more than a century ago, the southern coast of California—bone-dry, harbor-less, isolated by deserts and mountain ranges—seemed destined to remain scrappy farmland. Then, as if overnight, one of the world’s iconic cities emerged. At the heart of Los Angeles’ meteoric rise were three flawed visionaries: William Mulholland, an immigrant ditch-digger turned self-taught engineer, designed the massive aqueduct that would make urban life here possible. D.W. Griffith, who transformed the motion picture from a vaudeville-house novelty into a cornerstone of American culture, gave L.A. its signature industry. And Aimee Semple McPherson, a charismatic evangelist who founded a religion, cemented the city’s identity as a center for spiritual exploration. All were masters of their craft, but also illusionists, of a kind. The images they conjured up—of a blossoming city in the desert, of a factory of celluloid dreamworks, of a community of seekers finding personal salvation under the California sun—were like mirages liable to evaporate on closer inspection. All three would pay a steep price to realize these dreams, in a crescendo of hubris, scandal, and catastrophic failure of design that threatened to topple each of their personal empires. Yet when the dust settled, the mirage that was LA remained. Spanning the years from 1900 to 1930, The Mirage Factory is the enthralling tale of an improbable city and the people who willed it into existence by pushing the limits of human engineering and imagination.
Download or read book The Holy Spirit written by Aimee Semple Mcpherson and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
