Synopsis: Charles Simeon ministered for over fifty years in one
parish at the heart of Cambridge during the bleak period of English
national life between the French Wars and the passing of the Reform
Bill. He was considered by Lord Macaulay to have had greater
influence on the life of the church than any primate. Soundly
converted in his first term at King's College, he was appointed
Vicar of Holy Trinity in 1782, combining the incumbency with a
Fellowship and various academic posts. Highly unpopular at first on
account of both his message and his manner, scorned and abused for
many years, he carried on regardless of other's opinions until in
the end he became perhaps the best known and best respected name in
Cambridge. Hot-tempered but warm-hearted, impetuous but infinitely
patient, a man of imposing, even remarkable appearance, he was a
"character," about whom the most entertaining stories are eagerly
recounted. As a Christian of independent mind and strong
convictions, he found his spiritual strength in a lifetime of deep
devotion and strict personal discipline; as a biblical preacher he
was the first for many generations to see the possibility and
importance of teaching men how to expound the Scriptures; as a
pastor and evangelist his work with both town and gown was marked
by a rare faithfulness and zeal. Limited all his life to the one
center of spiritual activity, he yet was the moving spirit in the
formation of the Church Missionary Society, and an enthusiastic
supporter of the Bible Society and of work among the Jews.
Endorsements: "A brilliant biography. I can only think in
superlatives . . . this book will be the definitive biography in
any conceivable future." -Max Warren Author Biography: Hugh Evan
Hopkins was educated at Haileybury and Emmanuel College, Cambridge.
Converted during his first year, he became President of the
University Christian Union in 1930. After ordination he served as a
missionary in South India and later spent three years in
evangelistic work in the British universities. During World War II,
he was Vicar of churches in Redhill and Durham before being
appointed in 1947 Provost of Nairobi Cathedral, Kenya. On returning
to England, he was successively Rector of St. Mary-le-Bow,
Cheapside and Rector of the Parish Church of Cheltenham. He was
made Honorary Canon of Gloucester Cathedral in 1960. In Cheltenham
his interests included the work of the Samaritans, of which he was
Director, and the Colleges of Education, of which he was Chairman
of the Governors. His other books include Henceforth, The Mystery
of Suffering, and Morning and Evening Prayer.
