John Angell James (1785–1859)

John Angell James (1785-1859), born at a time when the preaching of the leaders of the evangelical revival was still remembered, trained at David Bogue’s College at Gosport, Hants, and served his entire ministry at Carrs Lane Congregational Church, Birmingham. He was thus an evangelical leader in the important era between the death of John Wesley and the advent of C. H. Spurgeon.
