At Spurgeon's funeral in 1892 he was called the 'Prince of Preachers' but he is also known for much more than that... So who was the real man behind the headlines? Was he different in private to the way he appeared in public? What was his prayer-life like and his attitude to the Bible? Did he have weaknesses and how were these overcome? All these questions are explored in Peter Morden's fine book. To help you on your journey to discover more about Spurgeon, and ultimately the Lord Jesus, there are sections at the end of each chapter to challenge and encourage. This beautifully designed book accompanies the drama documentary of the same name and is fully illustrated with photos, pictures and stills from the film. 'This inspiring and illuminating biography by Peter Morden tells the story of Spurgeon's achievements beyond the pulpit, through his social ministries and his concern for the training of pastors, with his lasting legacy of 'Spurgeons' (formerly Spurgeon's Child Care) and Spurgeon's Theological College.' David Coffey, President of the Baptist World Alliance, Governor at Spurgeon's College
