Reginald John Campbell was son of a United Free Methodist minister of Scottish descent, was born in London on August 29, 1867.
Reginald John Campbell was educated at schools in Bolton and Nottingham, where his father successively removed, and in Belfast.
Reginald John Campbell had gone to Oxford with the intention of becoming a clergyman in the Church of England, but in spite of the influence of Bishop Gore, then head of the Pusey House, and of Dean Paget (afterwards bishop of Oxford), his Scottish and Irish Nonconformist blood was too strong, and he abandoned the idea in order to take up work in the Congregational ministry. He accepted a call, on leaving Oxford, to the small Congregational church in Union Street, Brighton, and quickly became famous there as a preacher, so much so that on Joseph Parker's death he was chosen as his successor (1903) at the City Temple, London. Here he notably enhanced his popularity as a preacher, and became one of the recognized leaders of Nonconformist opinion.
At the end of 1906 Reginald John Campbell attracted widespread attention by his vigorous propagation of what was called the " New Theology, " a restatement of Christian beliefs to harmonize with modern critical views and beliefs, and published a book with this title which gave rise to considerable discussion.
