Various Works By C.H. Spurgeon
– C.H. Spurgeon
Recently I celebrated the privilege of preaching my 1000th sermon at Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Ga. This does not include Bible Studies, funerals, weddings, Wednesday Night Prayer Meetings or Leadership meetings. For this occasion, the church graciously gave me the entire set of Spurgeon’s Sermons, a total of 62 hardbound editions. This set includes over 40,000 pages and 3,561 sermons. This is a gift I will treasure for the rest of my life. Warren Wiersbe says he reads one of Spurgeon’s sermons every Sunday when he gets home from church. We could all learn something from Spurgeon – about preaching, leading and working through difficult times.
I have hanging in my office an original manuscript page, edited by Spurgeon using his famous purple ink. Every time I look at this remarkable page of Christian history, I am reminded that to be a pastor requires discipline, prayer and a renewed mind. I have a picture of Spurgeon sitting in his library in my study to remind me that great preachers must be great students of Scripture. Nothing eternal is easy.
