John Shower, English Puritan (1657 -- 1715) entered the ministry upon the advice of Thomas Manton after studying at Edward Veale's academy. He preached first at Thomas Vincent's church. He served as an assistant to Vincent Alsop for a time, preached with John Howe at Utrecht (later serving as an assistant to Howe in London) and Joseph Hill in Rotterdam, and later succeeded Samuel Annesley as Tuesday lecturer at Salters' Hall.

He was the author of Serious Reflections on Time and Eternity and God's Thoughts and Ways are above Ours (sermons on Isaiah 55.7-9), among other works.
 
The volume by Shower on forgiveness ("God's Ways and Thoughts Are Above Ours, Especially in the Forgiveness of Sins") is a first-rate book, even if I do say so myself.
