“Remarkable insights from a writer who is not only a Spurgeon scholar, but a man who has served the church as a professor of historical theology for more than forty years.”
— Don Whitney, author of Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life

— Kurt Smith, Pastor, Providence Reformed Baptist Church, Remlap, Alabama. Author of Thundering the Word: The Awakening Ministry of George Whitefield
“Brilliantly focusses on ten key moments, convictions really, that shaped the larger–than–life Charles Haddon Spurgeon. These convictions steeled Spurgeon to weather controversy, depression, and setbacks. Through it all, Spurgeon’s exuberant love for God, the gospel, and for the church shines through.”

C. H. Spurgeon, Autobiography Volume 1: The Early Years
$29.00By far, the best biography of Spurgeon, being his own account! Your respect and admiration for this great preacher and man of God will grow through the reading of this hugely important work. While any autobiography lacks the continuity of a well-researched biography, there is a freshness to it that is endearing. Spurgeon relates anecdote-like memories, along with detailed descriptions of some of the more pertinent events of his life.
The chapters dealing with his conviction of sin and subsequent conversion are especially enlightening.
His wife, Susannah Spurgeon, wrote several chapters that are also included – mostly about their courtship and early wedded life.
This volume deals mainly with Spurgeon’s childhood and early ministry with the New Park Street Baptist Church, and of course includes some of Spurgeon’s own humor.

Charles Spurgeon: The Prince of Preachers
$8.99Charles Spurgeon was a simple country lad who went on to become one of the best-known preachers in London, Europe and the world. But as a young lad, caught one night in a furious snowstorm, Charles snuck into the back pew of a dusty country chapel to get out of the bad weather. He had no idea that he would not only escape the freezing temperatures outside, but would escape this corrupt world, when he was faced with the most important decision of his life: will he turn to Christ?
A wrinkled old man started to preach, leading Charles to suppose this would be a thoroughly boring service – but once the words “Look unto Jesus and be saved” were announced, a cold, grumpy teenager began to realize that God’s word can change you, completely!
Before long, Spurgeon was the most well-known preacher in the land, touching the hearts of every class in his society.
