This Is That

"This Is That: Personal Experiences, Sermons and Writings of Aimee Semple McPherson" is a foundational collection detailing the life and spiritual work of one of the most influential figures in early twentieth-century American religion. As the pioneer of the Foursquare Church, McPherson provides a compelling account of her spiritual journey, including her conversion, missionary experiences, and the development of her massive evangelistic mission in Los Angeles.

This volume offers readers a comprehensive view of the charismatic theology and dynamic preaching style that defined McPherson's ministry. It compiles a variety of her powerful sermons, personal testimonies, and theological writings, emphasizing the work of the Holy Spirit, divine healing, and the transformative power of faith. These writings capture the energy and conviction that drew thousands to her meetings and made her a household name across the nation.

Beyond its autobiographical elements, "This Is That" serves as a significant historical document of the Pentecostal movement. It highlights the unique voice of a woman who broke traditional barriers in the pulpit, offering deep insights into the growth of modern evangelicalism and the historical evolution of charismatic Christianity. This work remains a vital resource for anyone interested in religious history, female leadership in the church, and the cultural impact of 20th-century revivalism.
