Walter Rauschenbusch (1861-1918) was a German-American theologian and social reformer and Baptist minister who ministered among the poor and the industrial workers of New York City. As a witness to extreme poverty he came to the view that Christianity should be at the core of social renewal and helped develop the Social Gospel movement.
