This review is from: The Life Story of Lester Sumrall: The Man, the Ministry, the Vision (Paperback)

Not only is this a great book, but a true story. I highly recommend this for anyone interested in the other side of the Spiritual veil. Lester Sumrall was in the Deliverance Ministry for over 5o years and has alot of wisdom, experience, and insight into dark and evil forces.

This review is from: The Life Story of Lester Sumrall: The Man, the Ministry, the Vision (Paperback)

Lester's bio is superb because it is written by him with the strength of humility: an ordinary man, an extraordinary response to God, a super-ordinary modern demonstration of the Lord's outpouring of His Spirit throughout Summerall's life. The book reads easily but powerfully. A must read for those who want to learn more about walking in power and love to reach the nations for Christ. This is a book you will want to give to others. Buy two right away and let a friend read it while you are enjoying the blessed journey of Lester's life.

This review is from: The Life Story of Lester Sumrall: The Man, the Ministry, the Vision (Paperback)

This book is a must read for anyone who needs to step out in faith. Lester Sumrall is an amazing man, and his life story will inspire anyone who has dared to step out in faith. I loved how real he is, and how transparent he allowed himself to be. We go from glory to glory, and from faith step to a bigger faith step. God's hand is shown in such a powerful way when the vessel He uses is willing to submit themselves to doing His will.
