Product description
While C. H. Spurgeon is
still remembered as being the most popular preacher of the Victorian
era, it has generally been forgotten that the influence he exercised on
fellow ministers and theological students was possibly an even greater
factor in his life than his own personal ministry. That he organized a
college, supervised the training of some 845 students, presided at an
annual conference of ministers, and regarded all this as his ‘life’s
labour and delight’ are facts that are little known today.
Spurgeon’s Lectures to my Students,
contain the substance of Spurgeon’s regular Friday afternoon addresses
to the college students. This new complete and unabridged Banner
edition, which has been newly typeset, contains all the lectures in the
original first and second series, including The Minister’s Self-Watch,
The Preacher’s Private Prayer, The Minister’s Fainting Fits, The Holy
Spirit in Connection with our Ministry, The Need of Decision for the
Truth, and On Conversion as our Aim. Also included is a third series of
lectures, originally published as The Art of Illustration, which focuses on the nature, use, and sources of illustrations and anecdotes in preaching.
To make this new edition as complete as possible, the publishers have also included Spurgeon’s Commenting & Commentaries,
which contains two further lectures and a fascinating and often
humorously annotated catalogue of commentaries. This catalogue,
compiled by Spurgeon after a review of some three to four thousand
volumes, is anything but dull: calculated to produce enthusiasts for
books, it also opens up a new world by its well-placed signposts to the
riches of the past. -- Publisher
