In 2025, the Baptist World Alliance (BWA) reported that it was a fellowship of 266 Baptist conventions and unions from 134 countries and territories across the globe. These diverse Baptist groups included 51 million baptized believers in 176,000 churches. Such statistical growth suggests a rich 120-year history from the BWA's origin in 1905, when Baptists counted 6.2 million members. Leaders from around the globe have guided the BWA in creative and diverse ways throughout this history. This volume profiles twenty-seven selected Baptist international leaders from across the world, highlighting BWA Women's leaders as well as the male leaders of the broader BWA. This biographical narrative, which includes several leaders not previously profiled elsewhere, demonstrates the diversity of global Baptists while also revealing that the BWA has been largely led by men from the Global North. Readers may draw both inspiration and caution from the stories of the individuals who have led the BWA.
