Charles H. Spurgeon
1834 to 1892
Charles Haddon Spurgeon was an English Baptist preacher whom many called the Prince of Preachers. From the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London he preached to thousands every week, and yet he knew the dark valleys too, suffering for years with illness and depression. His sermons and his devotional Morning and Evening are still read all over the world. He wrote with warmth, plain speech and an unshakeable confidence in God's goodness.
