Spurgeon: The Man Beyond the Pulpit - Hardcover

Charles Haddon Spurgeon, the "Prince of Preachers," authored 135 books, filled 63 volumes of sermons, sponsored 60 benevolent institutions, and preached to massive London congregations. His life and work still tower over Christian history. But how did one man accomplish so much, and how did he survive--and thrive--in the midst of relentless controversy, chronic sickness, debilitating depression, and heart-wrenching private grief?

Biographer Ray Rhodes focuses less on the thunder of the metropolitan pulpit and more on Spurgeon at home, tracing his inner strength back to the simple, quiet pastures of rural England. It shows how the very public man was forged in private valleys, where his faith learned to endure pain, sickness, and the shadows of death.

Spurgeon: The Man Beyond the Pulpit offers readers a substantive, accessible biography that captures the complete portrait of a beloved leader--the human heart beneath the towering legacy.
