This is a collection of thoughts and convictions from the great British reformer William Wilberforce (1759-1833). Wilberforce served in the British parliament and was a strong follower of Jesus Christ. He worked for twenty years to abolish slave trade (accomplished in 1807) and slavery throughout the British Empire (1833). He was active in at least sixty-nine philanthropic ventures serving the poor, children, factory workers and conducting scientific research. Wilberforce demonstrated the call to carry the Christian faith into every sphere of life.
