Description
Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) served for 30 years at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London. It is estimated that during his lifetime he spoke to 10 million people, and he became known as the "Prince of Preachers." His works fill over 60 volumes; and more than a century after his death, his sermons and devotional texts continue to challenge and touch Christians and non-Christians alike with their biblical grounding, eloquent text, and simple encouragement. Among his published books are "Lectures to My Students" (Hendrickson); "The Treasury of David" (Hendrickson), a devotional commentary on the Psalms; "All of Grace," the first Christian pocket-paperback published in the United States; numerous volumes of topical sermon collections; and the best-selling "Morning and Evening."
Features & Highlights
- Charles Haddon Spurgeon's classic Morning and Evening collection of daily devotionals was written in England more than a century ago. For generations, its cherished gems of daily strength and meditation inspired millions. However, in recent times, its archaic words, English spellings, and 19th-century expressions had become a barrier to many of today's readers and had obscured the vitality of this magnificent volume. In this new revised and updated version, Spurgeon's work is returned to its former brilliance and polish. The language has been remarkably updated without losing Spurgeon's knack for writing the well-turned phrase with well-chosen words. His themes emerge as fresh and relevant to our day as they were in his day. Urban poverty, troubling foreign political events, the role of church and state, troubling developments in public education - these issues were as much in his thoughts and prayers as they are in ours today. Morning and Evening offers two devotionals a day that will take you on an inspirational, year-long journey through every part of God's Word. It's a work that stands ready to help in your daily walk of faith in a language that a new generation can understand.
