Considered by his peers then and now as "one of evangelical Christianity's immortals," Charles Spurgeon's remarkable expository preaching in the city of London during the 1800's was a revival explosion that is still felt today. With results unparalleled in England since the days of Whitefield and Wesley, Spurgeon's nearly four decades of ministry remain one of the greatest pastoral, evangelistic, social ministries ever seen. Lifted up by the reviving and quickening power of the Holy Spirit, Charles Spurgeon's life and effectiveness was clearly rooted in this: his deepest desire centered in living a life of God-honoring Christian holiness. Exalting his Savior in godly living and preaching the gospel with power were his one consuming passion. Spurgeon believed that true happiness could only be found when we are free from the power of sin, when the gospel has purified our lives and we have a deep desire for holiness. Personal holiness is dynamic, practical, available, and essential for every believer. Spurgeon's teaching will meet you where you live and help you discover the transforming power of the Holy Spirit in your inner life.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) was England's best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. In 1854, just four years after his conversion, Spurgeon, then only 20, became pastor of London's famed New Park Street Church (formerly pastored by the famous Baptist theologian, John Gill). The congregation quickly outgrew their building, moved to Exeter Hall, then to Surrey Music Hall. In these venues, Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000—all in the days before electronic amplification. In 1861, the congregation moved permanently to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle.
