A Hand on My Shoulder Myrtle Dorthea Monville Beall

When she was a child, Myrtle Monville Beall would often feel the touch of a hand on her shoulder - the touch of a loving hand, but a hand that bespoke authority. The experience frequently repeated left her with a strange feeling of questioning. Many a childhood hour was spent in wondering what it meant. Many a year was to pass before she found the answer. But one day that answer was found. A Hand On My Shoulder recounts Myrtle's journey of faith from the Lord's first touch to the miraculous encounters with Him that transformed her life. Her journey of faith led a wife and mother of three young children to start a Sunday school in a storefront building to pastoring a church of over 2,000 people. Her ministry was anointed by God and became the catalyst for a great spiritual awakening known as the Latter Rain Revival of 1948. Her story reminds us that the God who touched her life continues to touch our lives today.
