Charles Haddon Spurgeon passed away on January 31, 1892, but the influence of his faith lives on. He is not “the Forgotten Spurgeon”. Besides, he has been called the “Prince of Preachers”, the “Heir of the Puritans”, “the People’s Preacher”, the Preacher who had “Communion with Christ and his people”, and one who lived “by revealed truth.” It is the studied purpose of this author to offer a documentary history of Spurgeon and the working church, to show that Spurgeon believed wholeheartedly in a healthy balance between doctrine and practice, by selecting the addresses, sermons, and testimonies that best cover the twenty-five years of Spurgeon’s pastorate and the working church at the Metropolitan Tabernacle from 1854–79. This current publication incorporates primary source material from the Metropolitan Tabernacle Minute Books of Church & Annual Church Meetings 1854–82, The Sword and the Trowel, and the Memorial Volume, 1879.
