I didn’t care for ‘Father Divine’s Bikes,’ but introduced me to a historical figure I had never heard of, Father Divine (though Father Divine is more of a character in spirit). Father Divine was an African-American religious figure who rose to prominence in the 1930s. PBS calls his International Peace Mission Movement, “one of the most unorthodox religious movements in America.” Learn more: https://pickingbooks.com/blog/father-divine #fatherdivine #bookreview #history #historicalfiction #bookworms #bookstagram #bookblogger https://www.instagram.com/p/BocBsFZliKk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1agjw0xyw81dn

we found Woodmont on the anniversary of Father Divine's death,  Reverend M. J. Divine, was an African American spiritual leader from about 1907 until his death ~ he founded the International Peace Mission movement, a multiracial and international church headquartered in this Gladwyne estate ~ Woodmont Palace Mission, has been maintained by his second wife, Mother Divine, aka Edna Rose Ritchings since his death in 1965 ~ we were invited inside the home for a private tour ~ pictures are not allowed inside the personal residence ~ pics shown are from the self-guided tour of the museum and outside mausoleum on the premises ~ Father Divine is interred in a crypt with the most incredible hand crafted door by the famous sculptor Donald DeLue ~ the Woodmont estate continued to be the home of Mother Divine until her death last year ~ also shown is his very patriotic office space ~ his patriotism and loyalty to the foundations of America were a core tennant of his preaching ~ he did not believe in skin color and taught the power of positive thinking ~ learning the history of the Divine Lorraine and Divine Tracy and the workings of his ministry was fascinating ~ it was an entertaining way to spend a rainy day #historylesson #learninghistory #nevertooold #motherdivine #fatherdivine #preacher #palacemission #woodmont #palacemissionpeacemovement #peacemovememt #woodmont #DonaldDeLue #sculptor #divinelorraine #divinetracy #religiousmovement (at Woodmont Palace Mission Inc) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnuMtK-lTVD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bbs98w6ac0qp
