About J. D. Jones

John Daniel Jones (1865–1942) was a Congregational minister, preacher, and popular author. He earned his MA from Owen’s College, Manchester, and his BD from St. Andrews in 1889. He was later awarded honorary DD degrees from the universities of St. Andrews, Manchester, and Wales. In 1888 he became minister of Richmond Hill Church, Bournemouth, where he remained until his retirement. It was from that pulpit where most of his popular sermons were delivered and where he earned the nickname “Archbishop of Congregationalism.” His church at Richmond Hill was considered to be one of the most renowned of nonconformist congregations in the whole country of England.
