Charles Fox Parham was born on June 4, 1873. He is typically referred to as “the father of Pentecostalism,” particularly teaching that the evidence that one received the baptism of the Holy Spirit was speaking in tongues.

And yes, there were plenty of heretical groups who called themselves true Christians who spoke in tongues. In this episode we will take a look at one of those groups called the “Shakers.”
