Aimee Semple McPherson & The Complexities of Christian Celebrities
Starting off the week by talking about the life and teachings of Aimee Semple McPherson. Aimee was a Canadian Pentecostal evangelist and media celebrity in the 1920s and 1930s, famous for founding the Foursquare Church. McPherson pioneered the use of broadcast mass media, she used radio, popular entertainment techniques, and stage theatrics, in her weekly sermons that popularized her name in an unprecedented way.
Our good buddy Anthony Scoma is joining us for the discussion. Anthony has been on the show twice before once covering the History of the Assemblies of God and the history of race in the AG.
Anthony is a 4th generation member of the Assemblies of God on both sides of his family. He graduated from UT with a degree in history, he received a Master of Divinity from SAGU, then went to Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary for a master's in historical Theology. In Anthony’s words, he has been tried by Presbyterians, Pentecostals, and Pagans 🤣🤣🤣.
As you can imagine, someone with such a diverse education is absolutely fascinating to talk to. Tune in tomorrow at 4PM CST to catch this program.

Hey Guys, Josh Lewis here. Have you ever wondered if the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit—like prophecy, healing, and tongues—really stopped after the apostles? Cessationists claim they vanished throughout church history, but that's a myth. In Remnant Radio’s new ebook, History of Spiritual Gifts: The Myth of Cessationism, I dive into church history to reveal the active use of spiritual gifts by early church fathers
