Description
A great tabernacle was once built for a great preacher. Such were C H Spurgeon’s preaching gifts that London’s six-thousand-seat Metropolitan Tabernacle was built in 1861 just to accommodate his followers. He continued to fill the pews until his death thirty years later.
Rejecting his father’s Congregationalism, sixteen-year-old Spurgeon first took a Baptist pastorate near Cambridge, England. A powerful evangelist with an appealing sense of humor, he delivered countless sermons that are still read and enjoyed today.
