Book Description<\/h2>\n

Do you ever underline helpful passages in books you are reading?<\/em> This is exactly what C. H. Spurgeon used to do when reading the Puritans. Whilst reading Thomas Manton, he was struck time and time again by the \u2018solid, sensible instruction, forcibly delivered\u2019 that he found there.<\/p>\n

These newly framed pictures are exhibited in Flowers From a Puritan’s Garden<\/em>, which Spurgeon intended to be used as an aid to meditation and prayer. Preachers will also find inspiration in these Manton-Spurgeon combinations for sensible and clear sermon illustrations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
