Reflecting the Great Physician: The Life and Ministry of Dr. Lilian B. Yeomans

Several prominent figures, including John Alexander Dowie and Aimee Semple McPherson, are well known to have influenced the early Pentecostal movement. Dr. Lilian B. Yeomans (1861-1942) is not well known today, yet her life, writings, and ministry were significant contributions to early Pentecostalism. The fruit of her deliverance from morphine addiction was a life and ministry that exhibited her firm faith in God’s Word. As a physician, she gave important insight into the doctrine of divine healing. Her compassionate practice of preaching the Gospel paired with praying for healing had a clear impact wherever she ministered. Believers today who desire to learn about the key figures of early Pentecostalism can be encouraged in their faith by reading her writings.
