George Campbell Morgan (1863-1945) was born in Gloucestershire, England. He was ordained in the Congregational Church and began his ministry at churches in Birmingham and London. In 1883 he began working with Dwight L. Moody and Ira Sankey during a revival in Britain. He went with them to the United States in 1896 and spent several years in America as an evangelist and Bible conference speaker. He returned to England in 1904 and served Westminster Congregational Chapel in London for 13 years, building it from a small church into one of the largest and most influential congregations in England. He traveled widely for the next 15 years, conducting numerous evangelistic crusades in America and Canada. For a time he was the pastor of Tabernacle Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia. In 1935 he returned to Westminster where he remained until shortly before his death. He was the author of many Bible commentaries and edited the Westminster Pulpit. His collections of sermons and Bible studies were widely popular and highly influential during the first half of the 20th century.
