William Booth

William Booth (1829–1912) was an English Methodist preacher and the founder of the Salvation Army, an organization dedicated to social justice and spiritual support for the poor and marginalized. He began his ministry in the East End of London, where he saw the need for both spiritual salvation and practical help. Booth’s Salvation Army combined evangelical preaching with social work, offering food, shelter, and rehabilitation to those in need. His work revolutionized Christian outreach, blending faith with social activism, and his legacy continues through the Salvation Army’s global impact in areas like poverty alleviation and disaster relief.

While women weep, as they do now, I’ll fight. While little children go hungry, as they do now, I’ll fight.

William Booth Quote

Can we go too fast in saving souls? If anyone still wants a reply, let him ask the lost souls in Hell.

Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help.

If I thought I could win one more soul to the Lord by walking on my head and playing the tambourine with my toes, I’d learn how!

Faith and works should travel side by side, step answering to step, like the legs of men walking. First faith, and then works; and then faith again, and then works again, until they can scarcely distinguish which is the one and which is the other.
