"My college lectures are colloquial, familiar, full of anecdote,
and often humorous; they are purposely made so, to suit the
occasion. At the end of the week I meet the students, and find them
weary . . . and only in a condition to receive something which will
attract and secure their attention, and fire their hearts."
Though best remembered as the most popular preacher of the
Victorian era, C. H. Spurgeon was also founder and president of the
Pastor's College in London. He supervised the training of over 800
students, presided at an annual conference for ministers, and, on
Friday afternoons, delivered regular lectures on every aspect of
pulpit ministry.
Featuring such gems as "The Minister's Fainting Fits"; "Posture,
Action, Gesture, etc."; and "On the Choice of a Text," this
unabridged edition of 28 of Spurgeon's classroom discourses on
homiletics overflows with practical wisdom, discerning wit, and
sage advice. Covering the call, open-air preaching, ordinary
conversations, using illustrations, and conduct outside the church,
Spurgeon's words are as rich and nourishing for pastors and
students today as they were more than a century ago.
CHAPTERS INCLUDE
- The Minister's Self-Watch
- Our Public Prayer
- On Spiritualizing
- The Blind Eye and the Deaf Ear
- On Conversion as Our Aim
- The Sciences as Sources of Illustration
An excellent and useful gift for pastors and seminary students,
church history enthusiasts, and even collectors and readers of
classic Victorian literature.
A parallel New Testament commentary that includes the text of the
King James Version and applicable portions from the sermons from
Charles Spurgeon on each left-hand page, and excerpts from the
writings of John Wesley and Matthew Henry on each right-hand page.
Read the biblical text and glance across the page to get the
interpretations and meditations of these giants of the faith.
"Spurgeon was anointed by the Holy Spirit with such an
extraordinary anointing that he was always a fountain of life in
opening up the Scripture. He loved the Puritans and dug gold galore
out of their writings." - Erroll Hulse, Pastor and Author of
numerous books "Something 'new' by Spurgeon. What else do you need
to know? And Spurgeon on the gospel? That should seal the deal for
anyone. Sometimes it is difficult to get people who are skeptical
of the Reformed faith to read someone of whom they might be suspect
due to ignorant associations. "By MacArthur? By Sproul? I've heard
that they believe______." But no one is doubtful about Spurgeon.
They will get the biblical gospel, and Spurgeon is a name people
trust. Don't miss the opportunity to obtain this scarce volume." -
Dr. Don Kistler, founder of Northampton Press
