Revival History

Smith Wigglesworth was God's apostle of faith. Smith Wigglesworth had a plumbing business in Bradford, England. Every Tuesday he would take people to Leeds to a group who practiced divine healing because they could not persuade Smith that the people could be healed in Bradford. Smith's wife Polly was  healed in Leeds.

A. A. Allen was bold and outgoing. His television commercials professed, “See! Hear! Actual miracles happening before your eyes! Cancer, tumors, goiters disappear! Crutches, braces, wheelchairs, stretchers discarded! Crossed eyes straightened! Caught by the camera as they occurred in the healing line before thousands of witnesses.”

Jack Coe Sr. was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on March 11th, 1918. When he was aged nine, his mother put him in an orphanage because she was going through severe hardship and was overwhelmed trying to raise her children. At age seventeen, he left the orphanage and began to drink and gamble, taking the same path of his father.

William Joseph Seymour was the co-founder of modern Pentecostalism; he will surely go down in history as one of America’s greatest African American religious leaders.

One of the most fascinating ministers of the Gospel in American history has to be the American Methodist circuit rider Peter Cartwright. Peter Cartwright was born September 1st, 1785 to poor parents in Amherst County, nestled along the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the State of Virginia. His father was a soldier fighting for liberty in the Revolutionary War.
