About the Author

Publisher's Description

Charles Haddon Spurgeon, known throughout the evangelical world as the "Prince of Preachers," preached over three thousand sermons during his career, covering virtually every Bible character and topic. One of Spurgeon's favorite presentations was the biographical sermon, drawing upon both the faithfulness and the failures of biblical characters. In this sermon collection, Kregel Publications has assembled a biblical portrait gallery of New Testament men, including sermons on John the Baptist, the man with the withered hand, Pilate, Stephen, and Simeon's "Nunc Dimittis." As always, pastors and speakers will find ample "food for thought" in Spurgeon's exposition. Christian readers will find encouragement in Spurgeon's insight into the practical issues of Christian living.
