商品簡介
The author's family and his own intellectual and spiritual development were directly influenced by the extraordinary dynamism of Aimee Semple McPherson. In the riveting narrative with which he prefaces this biography, he explains his ancestry and the ancestral roots of his drive to thoroughly document McPherson's life and work. Basing his work on thorough research, he writes with dedication and passion, inviting readers to understand the complexities of an inimitable woman who founded a religion that continues to thrive. Barfoot teaches at Arizona State University--as he states, "across traditional disciplines," including religious studies, humanities and the arts, and social and behavioral sciences.
