John Henry Jowett CH (25 August 1864 – 19 December 1923) was an influential British Protestant preacher at the turn of the nineteenth to the twentieth century who wrote books on topics related to Christian living.
After theological training at Edinburgh and Oxford, Jowett assumed the pastorate of the Saint James Congregational Church. His six effective years of ministry brought him to the attention of the Carr's Lane Church in Birmingham, England, on the death of their pastor.
Jowett was a prose-poet of the evangel rather than a thinker or theologian. He preached to the saints, or at least to those who accepted the main truths of Christianity but needed to have their faith and hope warmed into a glad certainty.
On the opening day of the Lyman Beecher Lectures on Preaching at Yale University in 1912, John Henry Jowett said, “I have had but one passion, and I have lived for it—the absorbingly arduous yet glorious work of proclaiming the grace and love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
