Synopsis

This inspiring biography describes the life and work of Albert Benjamin Simpson (1843-1919), founder of the Christian and Missionary Alliance. Born on Prince Edward Island, Canada, Simpson was raised in the Scottish presbyterian tradition. He was educated at Knox College, Toronto, and subsequently ordained into the Presbyterian Church of Canada. After pastoring churches in Ontario, Kentucky, and New York, he began a mission to the immigrants and the unchurched of New York City. This small mission, driven by Simpson's immense energy and his Spirit-filled Christ faith, led to the founding of the Christian and Missionary Alliance. A. B. Simpson was not only a talented organizer and preacher but also a popular hymn writer and author. The book includes contributions from Walter M. Turnbull, Robert H. Glover, J. Gregory Mantle, Kenneth Mackenzie, James M. Gray, Frederic H. Senft, and Paul Rader.
