At the age of eight, Roberts Liardon was called into worldwide ministry through a visit from the Lord. Blessed with a gift for powerful preaching, he began ministering at age fifteen, and, just two years later, found himself sharing the Gospel in the former Soviet Union. Since then, Roberts has preached in more than one hundred countries and has founded Roberts Liardon Ministries, Embassy Christian Center, Embassy Ministerial Association, Spirit Life Bible College, and Operation 500. Roberts also fervently pursues research of our Christian heritage as a historian. At age twelve, he received instruction from God to study past heroes of faith and gain an understanding of why some succeeded and others failed. The pursuit of Christian history became his passion, and, even as a young man, Roberts' earliest "dates" were with little old ladies who knew the likes of William Branham, Kathryn Kulhman, and Aimee Semple McPherson--great men and women of faith whose stories are told in God¿s Generals. As a historian, Roberts possesses a wealth of knowledge regarding the great leaders of three Christian movements--Pentecostal, Divine Healing, and Charismatic--and he has established ongoing research through the Reformers and Revivalists Historical Museum in California. As part of his call to preach to the nations, Roberts began Spirit Life Bible College, which trains ministers to carry the message of the Gospel around the world. The college's concurrent missions program, Operation 500, has produced five bases of operation in foreign nations, where graduates of Spirit Life plant churches and Bible colleges. Roberts, who currently resides in Irvine, California, is also a best-selling author internationally and has sold more than six million copies of his forty-eight books, which have been translated into over twenty-seven languages.Liardon, Roberts is the author of 'God's Generals II The Roaring Reformers' with ISBN 9780883689455 and ISBN 0883689456.
