Excerpt from The Bishop of Africa; Or the Life of William Taylor, D.D: With an Account of the Congo Country, and Mission For some time the blessed Holy Spirit has prompted me to write the following book, yea, it came upon me as an inspiration: so that I was compelled to write or disobey. It has seemed to me that the wonderful facts of the history of William Taylor ought to be put on permanent record. For years I have been gathering material for the same. Years ago I wrote a sketch of his life. This book will give a concise and somewhat complete account of his marvellous life and extensive travels; and of his great African mission; it will also tend to provoke the zeal and self-sacrifice of others. I write also to show how wonderfully his self-sustaining or Pauline method of support has been established; and also to show that this method by no means supersedes or disparages the work of the Missionary Society. Nay, verily! but it supplements and stimulates that work. And, as I am not an interested party, I hope to give an unprejudiced statement of facts that will be a blessing to all. I have gathered from all quarters a liberal amount of information concerning Central Africa, especially the region of the Congo, which is indeed a most promising mission field.

William Taylor (1821-1902) was a Methodist minister specializing in "street preaching" in Baltimore and Washington, D.C., when the Methodist church sent him to California as a missionary evangelist in 1849. He remained in the West for seven years, going on to become one of the church's most tireless worldwide evangelists. He later conducted crusades in Canada, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, South America, and South Africa. In 1884 he was named Missionary Bishop for Africa and he focused his energies on missionary activities on that continent. Taylor spent his last years in California, the site of his first mission. California life illustrated (1858) expands on his reminiscences in Seven years' street preaching in San Francisco (1857). He describes his voyage to California and gives details of family life, social life, politics and church history in San Jose, Santa Cruz, and Sacramento. He comments at length on California agriculture and mineral resources and offers a chapter on mining camp life. After founding the Powell Street church, Taylor explains, he undertook a mission to sailors in San Francisco which left him so burdened by debt that he returned east to publish books and conduct revivals in the hope of putting his finances in order.

This book is the first critical biography of William Taylor, a nineteenth-century American missionary who worked on six continents. Following Taylor’s global odyssey, the volume maps the contours of the Methodist missionary tradition and illumines key historical foundations of contemporary world Christianity. A work of social history that places a leading Methodist missionary in the foreground, this narrative illustrates distinctive aspects and tensions within Methodist missions such as the importance of doctrines like universal atonement and entire sanctification, a deeply pragmatic orientation rooted in God’s providence, an embrace of both entrepreneurial initiatives and networked connection, and the use of revivalism for missionary outreach and leadership development. A Virginia native, Taylor became a Methodist preacher and missionary in California. This volume provides an important narrative account of Taylor’s career as an itinerant revivalist and popular author, in which he toured the eastern United States, the British Isles, and Australasia. Taylor’s participation in the South African revival made him an evangelical celebrity. The author also follows Taylor’s important visits to India and South America, where he initiated new Methodist missions in those contexts and pioneered the concept of “tentmaking” missions. In 1884, Taylor was elected missionary bishop of Africa by his church. By the end of his life, Taylor had recruited or inspired hundreds of Methodists to become foreign missionaries.

What qualities could a man possess that would inspire a university to change its name because of the ideals he stood for and the results of his life? William Taylor's pioneering spirit took him from the streets of San Francisco to the darkest corners of Africa. His empathy for sailors coming to port in San Francisco led Taylor to pay for and build them a resting place called the Bethel. As a pastor, Taylor started churches in California, India, and Africa. As an evangelist, he preached to thousands in the open air. As a teacher, he started schools in South America. As a Methodist Bishop, he pioneered a new conference in Africa. As a publisher and writer, he supported himself and others in ministry. Strap yourself in for a whirlwind, worldwide ride as one man lives with purpose and passion as a pioneer prophet.
