The Lord will come again; He promised us that. But is His church ready? We know neither the day nor the hour of Christ’s return, but we are instructed to be ready at all times. Aimee Semple McPherson felt the urgency of this call, and she urges the church to be ready for His glorious return.

Is Christ coming?
How is He coming?
When is He coming?
For whom is He coming?
The harvest is ready, and the Lord will come back to reap a bountiful, mature body of believers. Be prepared to rise up and meet Christ when He appears in the clouds of glory!
Aimee Semple McPherson (1890 - 1944)
Also known as Sister Aimee, was a Canadian-American Los Angeles–based evangelist and media celebrity in the 1920s and 1930s. She founded the Foursquare Church. McPherson has been noted as a pioneer in the use of modern media, especially radio, and was the second woman to be granted a broadcast license. She used radio to draw on the growing appeal of popular entertainment in North America and incorporated other forms into her weekly sermons at Angelus Temple.In her time she was the most publicized Christian evangelist, surpassing Billy Sunday and her other predecessors. She conducted public faith-healing demonstrations before large crowds, allegedly healing tens of thousands of people. McPherson's articulation of the United States as a nation founded and sustained by divine inspiration continues to be echoed by many pastors in churches today. Her media image, which sensationalized difficulties with her mother and daughter, as well as a mysterious five-week disappearance, shrouded her extensive charity work and significant contributions to the revitalization of American Christianity in the 20th century.
