Sermon overview

Eutychus falls asleep during a long gathering and falls from the window. Paul goes down to him, and Luke ends the scene with the people comforted.

Wigglesworth uses the scene to ask what it means to be possessed by the Spirit. Read the gathering’s response to the young man alongside that application.

How Wigglesworth influenced Vince Baker

Vince Baker came to Christ on July 9 at age 17. For his July 26 birthday, his grandmother gave him Albert Hibbert’s Smith Wigglesworth: The Secret of His Power.

Vince recalls that God spoke to him as he read about Wigglesworth’s life and ministry. The book shaped his own walk with God and the way he teaches about faith, prayer, and yielding to the Holy Spirit.
