C H Spurgeon - The People's Preacher - Softcover

Spurgeon was known as the `Prince of Preachers', and while it's not hard to see why people should focus on this area of Spurgeon's life and ministry, he wasn't just a preacher. He was involved in an extraordinarily wide range of Christian social activity. But who was the real man behind the headlines? What was his prayer-life like and what was his attitude to the Bible? Did he have weaknesses and how were these overcome? As we read of the life of Spurgeon so also all these questions are explored in Peter Morden's fascinating and informative book, illustrated in full colour, and published alongside the film of the same name. And to help the reader to discover more of what we can learn from Spurgeon and about him, and ultimately the Lord Jesus, there are sections at the end of each chapter to challenge and encourage. There is a DVD docu-drama available with the same title. The 2 hour DVD comprises of 75 minute film, 15 minutes of the making of the film and 30 minute interview with Peter Morden who is the author of the book and a lecturer at Spurgeon College.

Peter Morden is tutor in church history and spirituality at Spurgeon's College, London, England and a member of the Baptist World Alliance council. He previously served as senior pastor of Shirley Baptist Church, Solihull. Peter is married to Anne and they have two children, Rachel and Joseph.
