He Will Lead Me

""Alex Fergus has provided a vivid, and at times moving, account of Oscar M. Knutson's contribution to the history of Pentecostalism in the United States. Based on a remarkable sweep of archival materials, many of which derive from Knutson's descendants, He Will Lead Me weaves together a lavish tapestry of reflections on theological evolution within the Pacific Northwest landscape, spiritual biography, and the sometimes-gritty history of religious evangelism in modern America."" --Anthony E. Clark, Professor of Chinese History, Whitworth University ""He Will Lead Me is an artfully compelling combination of intellection and argument with spiritual challenge and pastoral wisdom. Fergus's readers stand poised to experience food for their souls as well as for their minds. I wholeheartedly commend it!"" --Matthew Bell, Instructor in Computer Science, Whitworth University ""This book is a wonderful resource for understanding not only Knutson, but to gain a picture of how the Pentecostal movement was being received and adopted into a Northwest culture in the 1920s and beyond. Fergus has given us a great gift into this world."" --Jim Singleton, Faculty, Flourish Institute of Theology ""The author has done an outstanding job in ferreting out information from various newspapers and archival resources. This spiritual biography brings to life the important story of an almost forgotten early pioneer evangelist and minister who exemplified faithful service to God."" --Glenn W. Gohr, Reference Archivist, Flower Pentecostal Heritage Center
