J. Wilbur Chapman, an influential figure in the realm of American Presbyterian evangelism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, left an indelible mark through his writings and revival meetings. Born on June 17, 1859, in Richmond, Indiana, Chapman pursued his religious calling with fervor, graduating from Lake Forest University and Princeton Theological Seminary. His dedication led him to pastorates in influential churches and to work closely with esteemed evangelist Dwight L. Moody. With deep convictions and compassionate outreach, Chapman authored several impactful books, including the insightful 'And Judas Iscariot,' which delved into the complexities and motivations of one of the most enigmatic figures in Christian scripture. This work, like many of Chapman's writings, showcased his literary style that intertwined theological acumen with a heartfelt narrative drive, appealing to both scholars and lay readers. His theological perspective and eloquence from the pulpit translated seamlessly into his published works, offering readers a blend of doctrinal depth and accessible religious contemplation. Chapman's legacy, defined by his commitment to evangelism and Christian education, remains influential, with 'And Judas Iscariot' being a testament to his scholarly and spiritual contributions to religious literature. He continued his spiritual leadership until his death on December 25, 1918, leaving behind a wealth of literature that continued to inspire and educate long after his passing.
