An Anglican scholar and preacher with a gift for making theology clear, he became a respected evangelical voice on both sides of the Atlantic. His books, lectures, and teaching left a lasting mark on early twentieth-century Protestant thought.

by W. H. Griffith (William Henry Griffith) Thomas
Born in Oswestry, Shropshire, on January 2, 1861, William Henry Griffith Thomas was an Anglican cleric and scholar known for combining careful learning with a direct, practical style. He studied at King's College London and went on to build a reputation as a pastor, teacher, and writer whose work appealed to readers looking for serious theology explained plainly.
Griffith Thomas served in ministry in England before moving to Canada, where he taught at Wycliffe College in Toronto. He became especially well known for his evangelical convictions within Anglicanism and for books that aimed to strengthen Christian belief and Bible teaching.
Late in life, he was also connected with the founding of what became Dallas Theological Seminary, extending his influence into North America. He died on June 2, 1924, but his writings have remained in circulation for readers interested in biblical exposition, doctrine, and Anglican evangelical history.
