About Len Lindstrom
Len Lindstrom is a well-known International Evangelist with a burning passion to reach lost eternal souls through purpose driven ministry backed by the power and presence of the Holy Ghost.
And despite the fact that he has already been privileged to see over 12 Million Souls come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour in his meetings — for which He gives God all the glory — he remains a man who is still hungry for much more of God.
A Canadian — born in Winnipeg Manitoba and raised in Prince George BC — his early life was wild, rough and rowdy as he grew up far away from the knowledge or reality of God.
His early work like most of his peers began in the logging industry — but by the time Lindstrom was 20 he was superintendent of an industrial construction company and at age 21 he launched his own successful construction company.
Voted — “MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED AND LEAST LIKELY TO EVER GET SAVED” — Len had a marvellous encounter with Jesus Christ right at home a couple years later while reading a book on March 29 1975, and his party-hardy lifestyle was dramatically transformed by the presence and reality of Almighty God.
Sensing the divine call of God burning in his heart — he made a radical decision to disburse of everything he owned — sold his two new homes and basically gave away the rest of his earthly belongings including all his boy’s toys in total abandon and commitment to follow the “Call of God” on his life.
Which kicked off with a 3 year Pentecostal Curriculum gutted down to 10 months of highly intensive training at Canadian Bible Academy in Edmonton Alberta — and from there he went straight into ministry.
For the next 7-8 months Len pastored a church in Kelowna BC which rapidly grew from a small handful of elderly folks struggling to hold the church together to a packed out church as God’s presence wonderfully came down with incredible miracles of healing and the fresh reality of God’s tangible presence.
During that early fledgling stage of ministry the congregants may have called him pastor — but in actuality — a fire-brand “EVANGELIST” was already in the house!
Then sensing God had a much greater purpose for him — he resigned the church and all financial support and loaded his young family in the back of the — “Pontiac Hotel” — and began a life of living by faith as they criss-crossed western Canada preaching in native reserves, halls, hotels and churches — wherever the door was open and people were hungry for God.
And right from his very first day in ministry — incredible miracles of healing followed the infallible Word of God everywhere he went — and the ministry rapidly grew.
Then on November 29 1979 — at the end of his first of three 40 day fasts on water only — the Lord Jesus appeared to Len and caught him up out of his body and up in the Spirit and gave him a very dramatic life-changing experience as the Lord showed him field after field after field in nation after nation around the world — all filled with tens of thousands of darker skinned people with their hands raised in surrender to God and calling on the Name of Jesus.
And then a divine presence which sounded like a mighty swirling wind entered the room — whirling about like a fresh Wind of Pentecost — and like rumbling thunder the Voice of God spoke these words to him.
“Son, I have called you — I have chosen you — I have separated you from your mother’s womb — I have raised you up and anointed you — and now I am going to send you to the masses overseas — to preach the Gospel with power to them — and I will confirm My Word with signs, wonders and miracles — that they may know that I am truly alive and that I love them!”
Within a month and a half from that lifechanging tangible encounter with Jesus — the World Harvest Global Outreach to the nations began — and since then Lindstrom has preached in over 140 nations around the world.
Preaching face to face to multiplied tens of millions of people — usually filling open fields, soccer grounds, stadiums or any venue possible — with crowds that vary anywhere in size from 10 or 20 thousand to 100,000 and sometimes well over 200,000 in a single service.
In 1984 the Lord divinely inspired Len to get a huge new Gospel Tent — Canada’s largest — which he had built in Texas — and for the next 12 years the summer seasons were filled with Holy Ghost Tent campaigns across Canada which brought many churches and large crowds together for the first time ever in Canada — coast to coast — in over 120 Canadian cities.
Which resulted in over 50,000 Canadian souls being saved — just in those early years of tent ministry — as well as a myriad of outstanding miracles in Canada including multiplied hundreds of deaf, dumb, blind, crippled and cancers instantly healed.
As the ministry of Len Lindstrom has repeatedly and consistently proven that Jesus Christ is not only the same — “YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER” — to the developing nations — but that Jesus Christ is just as surely the same Saving Healing Delivering Miracle Working Lord of Glory right here in the West in what many consider much more sophisticated and analytical Canada and America!
In 1999 Len launched a weekly television program entitled — “Miracles For You” — which was broadcast at the time on several television networks in Canada and the United States as well as abroad to an additional 20 nations — and he is also a prolific author with many books published, several study manuals and a myriad of shorter articles, teachings and magazines.
For the record — Lindstrom is a firm believer in the strength and blessing generated by churches and ministries working together in unity and he has a passion to see Canadian churches strengthened and encouraged in the power of God’s Word and Spirit.
Nevertheless — he is deeply concerned over the current dwindling state of the modern day Church in North America and its overall tragic numerical decline as seen in many recent demographic studies and experience.
As such — in the midst of his many massive overseas soul-winning outreaches across the world — which is the primary Heartbeat of God that drives him on — Lindstrom is also undertaking the work of a true “Revivalist” in North America with a powerful and fearless voice calling the Church back to its “First Love” and back to true Holy Ghost “Book of Acts” style ministry.
Which Len believes is the only real hope for our nations and for the modern day Church if we are to see a genuine Holy Ghost Revival and a great ingathering of souls in this end-time hour before the Lord returns.
In short — Len’s ministry emphasizes the LOVE, GRACE and POWER of the Living God towards all people — regardless of religion, race or culture — and, as already stated, has frequently drawn crowds of over 200,000 in a single service.
As such, Len Lindstrom has often been recognized as one of the most fearless and influential international miracle soul-winning evangelists of the 20th and 21st centuries — and his faith building messages are always “Word-Centred” and timely — and he will surely be a blessing to all those who hear him.
