When the Lord spoke to her as she was at death's door, she accepted her ministry. She preached in tents, concert halls, boxing rings, and speakeasies, prayed for the healing of hundreds of thousands of people, founded a Church, built a Pentecostal temple of Hollywood dimensions and she bacame, in the 1920s and 1930s, such a celebrity that the press publicly thanked her for having given work to so many journalists. This is the story of a unique woman; of the power of passion that rejects compromise and a faith that will not be shaken. 'Epstein's thoughtful analysis of the evangelist creates an intriguing portrait...Aimee Semple McPherson was profoundly succcessful, and Epstein shows why: she preached an inclusive philosophy; she questioned, but did not judge.

Gorman, Ralph. THE LAST HOURS OF JESUS. NY: Sheed & Ward, c. 1960.
Light tan cloth, bright light purple lettering. One full-page map. Nihil Obstat. Imprimi Potes. Imprimatur. T RELIGION. "For the general reader, the problem is not that there are too many books on the Passion of Our Lord, but that there are too few good ones...The value of THE LAST HOURS OF JESUS lies precisely in the fact that it was written for the general reader...who has neither the time nor the background to follow the scholarly sutdies, and is rightly repelled by efforts to turn the most meaningful incident in history into either a 'news story' or an invitation to an uninformed and unreflective piety. Father Gorman...presents in clear but authoritative terms those factual details of time, place and persons necessary to a full realization of what actually happened during 'the last hours of Jesus.
