John Robert Stevens
From the day he preached his first sermon in 1933 at the age of fourteen, John Robert Stevens answered God's unique call upon his life. As a minister and teacher, he devoted his life to serving the Lord and His people. He was able, in a very simple way, to unlock the secrets of the Word of God and share them with hungry hearts. Today, many believers and churches are discovering the depth of his messages from The Living Word.
John Robert Stevens was first and foremost a minister of restoration, with the goal in mind of seeing the Church restored to its original purity and power. His ministry inspired the establishment of churches throughout the United States and around the world, known as "The Living Word Fellowship." A collection of more than 12,000 carefully recorded tapes and over 1,000 books, manuals, and pamphlets exists today as a source of John Robert Stevens' timeless teachings.
Living Word Publications is a ministry of The Living Word, the publishing house of The Living Word Fellowship. The Living Word was established in 1968 out of a vision to capture, preserve, and publish the teachings of John Robert Stevens. Many of Stevens' sermons have been edited and published in books, manuals, and a weekly periodical titled "This Week."
The Living Word continues in its ministry today—carefully recording, editing, and publishing teachings of Stevens' successor, Gary Hargrave, and others who teach and minister the Word.
