Roy Hession

About the Author

Roy Hession was a British evangelist, pastor, and author whose writings profoundly influenced Christian spirituality and revival movements throughout the 20th century. Born in 1908, he experienced a transformative encounter with Christ during his university years at Cambridge, leading him to abandon a promising career in law for full-time ministry. Hession's work emphasized the centrality of Jesus, personal surrender, and the power of the Holy Spirit in everyday life, drawing from deep biblical insights and personal testimonies. His book 'We Would See Jesus' became a cornerstone for many seeking deeper intimacy with God, advocating for a life of brokenness and dependence on Christ. Hession's legacy endures through his clear, heartfelt prose that calls believers to authentic faith, impacting generations across denominations until his passing in 1995.
