Wigglesworth: The Complete Story

In the two thousand years since the birth of Christianity, few individuals have made such an impact on the world for the Gospel as the Yorkshire-born plumber turned evangelist, Smith Wigglesworth. Multitudes were saved worldwide as he ministered, and miracles of healing and deliverance occurred that have rarely been witnessed since the days of the apostles. As Barry Chant has commented: ‘It can safely be said that no one has ever had a ministry quite like his.’ Numerous volumes of his sermons and teachings, as well as a number of accounts of his life have been published and the interest in Wigglesworth continues to grow. He founded no movement, authored no books (although several were published in his name), had no official disciples, and no doctrine or theological college bears his name, but through his audacious faith and spectacular healing ministry, Wigglesworth fanned the flames of revival in countries throughout the world. Thousands came to know Jesus Christ as their Saviour, received divine healing and were delivered from demonic oppression and possession as a result of his ministry. In this new paperback version of the bestselling biography, author Julian Wilson gives a detailed and frank account of Smith Wigglesworth's life.
