Smith Wigglesworth (1859–1947) was an influential British evangelist and a key figure in the early 20th-century Pentecostal movement. Born in Yorkshire, England, he worked as a plumber before becoming renowned for his dynamic preaching and miraculous healing ministry. Wigglesworth emphasized the power of the Holy Spirit and exhibited boldness in his approach. His ministry, marked by reported healings, deliverances, and even raising the dead, garnered recognition worldwide. He played a significant role in the early Pentecostal movement, associating with leaders like Charles Parham and William Seymour. Despite varying perspectives on his legacy, Wigglesworth continues to inspire many within Pentecostal and charismatic Christian circles.
