Dr. Albert G. Lemmons was born in 1936 in Northern Arkansas. He is from a lineage of gospel preachers that dates back more than 150 years to John M. Lemmons who was born in 1816 and was converted under the preaching of Ben Franklin and Barton W. Stone, pioneers of the Restoration movement of New Testament Christianity. No generation has since been without able preachers.
Lemmons was educated at Freed-Hardeman College, Henderson, Tennessee; Harding College, Searcy, Arkansas; Harding Graduate School, Memphis, Tennessee; University of Miami, Florida; Brite Divinity School, Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, Texas; and Rice Seminary, Jacksonville, Florida, from which he received the Doctor of Ministry degree in May, 1974.
He has been married to Patsy Davenport Lemmons for fifty-one years. They have five children and eleven grandchildren.
Among the books authored by Lemmons are Prayer and Fasting, Teach Us to Pray, Christian Trustee, Dynamic Faith, and Is Fasting for Today? Dr. Lemmons has conducted more than 600 revival meetings, workshops, and seminars during his fifty-two years of ministry, speaking in Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America. His tape ministry is far-reaching.
