Summary

Draw closer to the throne of grace with these 38 classic sermons from the "Prince of Preachers." Working from the simplest of texts, Spurgeon mines spiritual riches on the believer's prayer life, the great prayers of the Bible, and the precious prayers of Jesus himself. Each address is delivered not in the flowery speech popular in nineteenth century England, but in plain-spoken English that still nourishes-and convicts-modern readers. Combining a keen intellect, a passion for scripture, and a zeal to make Christ known, these sermons are as timeless as their topics. Book jacket.
