Bearing the emotional wounds of a tragic childhood, Maria Woodworth-Etter embarks upon the journey of motherhood only to lose her children, one heartbreak after the other. The sufferings of her life were so great that sorrow nearly broke her. I have read her book but I still don't undertand how she managed to endure. Who would have thought that God would chose such a person to imprint His Name and dispaly His power upon a generation?

If God wanted to prove that He choses the weak and foolish things of this world in order to confound the strong and the wise, He found His vessel of choice in this little woman, Maria Woodworth-Etter.

A shy and timid woman, barely able to utter a word in public, Maria Woodworth Etter became one of the most legendary vessels of God since the early church age. When she took the platform and opened her mouth He filled it with His Words, and with power. Her natural voice was small but when the anointing of God came upon her she could be heard clearly from a great distance. Travelers passing through the villages where her meetings were taking place would find themselves falling under the "slaying anointing" or "falling down anointing" as custom would call it, as they came near her meetings. Record has it that railroad men finding passengers falling down mysteriously would suddenly realize that Mother Etter was preaching nearby, and they would understand what was happening to these passengers in their railroad cars. In both the Old and New Testaments it is recorded that there were times when people could not stand in the Presence of the Power of God. And this was just one manifestation of her ministry.

Some of the greatest miracles of God ever recorded were wrought in the ministry of this unlikely little woman. An awesome record of the outpouring of the Holy Ghost in her generation, this book is an inspiration. If He did it once He can do it again. And if He could use her, perhaps He could use...well.

For every student of the great moves of God this book is a must read, and a keeper for your library. You won't want to part with it. I predict that you will make a special home for it on your shelf alongside the works of John G. Lake, Smith Wigglesworth, Kathryn Kuhlman and the few others like them.

Not sure that you believe in miracles but would like to read about them and about the people used to perform them? This is a great place to begin. But remember, faith does not come from reading about miracles, it comes from knowing the miracle giver, and by reading His book. The books of Maria Woodworth-Etter will point you there.

An anointed(still!)record of the meetings of Maria Woodworth-Etter(1844-1924)in her own words and sermons as well as contemporary reviews, testimonies of healings, and eyewitness accounts of the real power and presence of the Holy spirit . Though the coming of the Lord for the church may not have come as soon as she seemed to be saying, I believe she spoke as the Lord directed in a prophetic voice. I would recommend this book to any one searching for God as well as to those who long to see His power today.

I HAVE HEARD MY FATHER TALK ABOUT THIS BOOK FOR MANY YEARS. BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET A COPY AS IT WAS OUT OF PRINT. I WAS SO PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GET ONE. THE BOOK IS SO INSPIRATIONAL. I LOVE IT.

Etter was a champion of the Faith. She lived through great emotional hardship and still served God unwaveringly. Through her God healed and spoke to a generation. She was the grandmother of the Pentecostal movement.

I was so fascinated with this book as a gift that my husband gave me for Christmas, that I in turn gave it to my Mother, Step-Mother and Grandmother for Mother's Day this year... knowing they would all thoroughly enjoy it as much as I have... I have the fortune of my husband reading a few chapters to me in the evenings every now and then... and even if he re-reads some of the same passages, it is still so wonderful to hear it again... You will not be disappointed, and if you pay attention you will see her strategy as it were.

This has been a great book thus far. It is great to be able to read about revivalists of old and there exploits. It builds my faith for what is happening now around the globe concerning God and the building of his kingdom! This book is not about religion although Etter refers to 'religion' often in terms of being converted to Christ, NOT necessarily what we perceive as religion today. She preached Jesus and was used as he spoke to and through her. It excites me that we can and will be used today! Praise his HOLY Name!

The book was sent in more than a timely manner! Awesome! Thank You SOooo Much!

This is a must have for anyone who desires to walk in the call of which they have been chosen. To totally trust in and be led by the Holy Spirit without shame or doubt.

This book provides insight into the operations and movement of the Holy Spirit. It also details the Love of God and shows How mighty God can use his people regardless of how accurate they are.

Some of her theories I could not agree on. It was one of those books I had to spit out the bones.
