Description

About the Author 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 .

Feel empowered by the Spirit with this awesome collection of powerful and motivational sermons.

Arguably, Charles Haddon Spurgeon was one of the greatest Christian orators to have ever lived. As a Reformed Baptist preacher, he proclaimed the truth of the gospel in England in the 1800s, yet his words still inspire countless Christians of all denominations in the 21st century. Spurgeon lead one of the first modern “mega-churches” where he routinely preached to audiences in the thousands each and every Sunday. In fact, Spurgeon was so popular that newspapers reprinted the text of his sermons the following day. Why the history lesson?

Because within Spurgeon’s Sermons, you are treated to some of Spurgeon’s best transcribed messages, each filled with power, strength, razor-sharp thought, and awe-inspiring theological imagination. Spurgeon’s words will leave you spellbound and even if this set cost $500 it would still be a bargain.

One of the most helpful parts of this five-volume set are the indices at the end of the fifth volume. Both serve as a type of “Google search” where you can locate the page for a particular topic (e.g., resurrection and atonement) or a particular Scripture verse. This proves to be tremendously helpful when looking for supplemental information to match your own Bible study.

Personally, Spurgeon’s Sermons is one of my most treasured resources and I never prepare a sermon without it. Furthermore, to say that this set is a collection of mere ‘sermons’ undervalues the breadth of work. What the reader is subsequently gifted is a vast ocean of symbolism, exegesis, story-telling, poetry and homiletical persuasion.

One can truly experience the inspirational and motivational force of the Holy Spirit moving you through the words of Spurgeon in this timeless book. Spurgeon brings the Word of God to life and through beautiful theological reflection, invites you to bask in the overwhelming felt love that comes from having a deep, personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

The Prince of Preachers

This is not a review of the content, as anyone who knows Spurgeon knows he has earned his title "The Prince of Preachers." This is more of a review of the physical aspects of the set. The only complaint I could possibly state is that the print fades a little on some pages, making a little harder to read. Other than that, this is a fine edition of Spurgeon's Sermons.

Printing ink quality LOW.

This review is based solely on book quality, NOT content.
As you see in the picture, which is also a close-up, letters are printed with little ink or missing many critical lines. While its decipherable, it certainly makes reading it more difficult.
Timeless and valueable are Charles Spurgeon's sermons and well worth learning from for eterniy's sake- despite the pathetic printing quality.
