The story of Spurgeon s life, largely in his own words, from the events of childhood and youth and through the period of his mature ministry. Here is an inspiring record of a Christian life which continues to be of blessing for so many. In his heart, wrote Archibald Brown, Jesus stood unapproached, unrivalled. He worshipped Him; he adored Him. He was our Lord s delighted captive. Whatever Spurgeon did he did it for Christ. None can read these pages without being indelibly impressed with the author s words, there is no time for serving the Lord like the very earliest days of youth.

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.
