Added to listBiography - Americanwith 6 books.
it’s difficult for outsiders to grasp just how pioneering McPherson was in early 20th Century American Christianity, making her mark in Pentecostalism’s urban institutional expansion, mass broadcasting, megachurching, formal leadership by women, and denominationalism. Blumhofer paints a scholarly study enlivened with McPherson’s antics like riding her motorcycle down the main aisle of her church and up to her pulpit.
