Book Description
The enduring value of this ‘Autobiography’ lies in its record of God’s grace. Through out these pages the Saviour stands above the servant. That Christ is worthy of a devotion and a service incomparably greater than any redeemed sinner can render is the supreme lesson of the book.
‘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.’

Christopher Staggs –
These are great books! I finished the second volume not too long ago.
Robert Norman –
Only the grace of God can explain how young Spurgeon became a preacher, built on an existing church, and then planted a hugely successful church in London.
Only the grace of God can explain the fruit of Spurgeon’s life and the lives that were touched. Only God’s grace is responsible for the highly sanctified life of Spurgeon which touched thousands of lives while he was alive and continues to do so to this very day.
Robert Norman –
Note to Banner:
This would be even more excellent abridged into one volume. 😀
Steven Daskal –
I read these two volumes with fascination and great enjoyment. Yes, it is an autobiography of sorts, but it is really a compilation vividly powerful excerpts of Spurgeon’s writings and sermons, along with anecdotes from his diaries and from family and close friends, compiled with love by Spurgeon’s widow, a faithful Christian herself. One gets a real sense of the power of Spurgeon’s faith, the depth of his Biblical learning [mostly self-taught], and a sampling of the people he led to Christ and of his other ministries besides his powerful revival-like preaching ministry. A very worthwhile investment.
