Editorial Reviews

Product Description

An all round ministry; addresses to ministers and students

While Spurgeon is always, both stimulating and challenging, the context in which these addresses were given brought the best out of him and gave them unique quality. Full of biblical exposition, wise counsel, practical sanity and warm exhortation, they also sparkle with a delightful wit. Here is Spurgeon at his finest as a man with a pastoral heart par excellence. (Banner of Truth)

5.0 out of 5 stars A "Must Read" for anyone who intends to preach effectively!, February 8, 1999

By A Customer

I beleve this Book is an immense help for anyone who will give the blessed gospel of Christ. While Spurgeon is a Calvinist, This book is not aimed at the sreading of Calvinistic doctrine, but at providing an effective ministry. Spurgeon is thought provoking and witty, but doesn't dilly-dally, and makes no apology for the great truths of God and his word. This is a book definitely aimed at old fashioned preaching, which is essential to godliness in the pulpit. It is supported by scripture (KJV) and not popular opinion. This is definitely a book that is as relevant today as it was when it was written, and deserves to be in anyone's top ten who intends to follow the great commision of our Lord and "preach the gospel unto every living creature".

5.0 out of 5 stars Spurgeon's Pastoral Heart Shines Through, April 21, 2005

By	Roy Ingle "The Seeking Disciple" (Augusta, GA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Charles Spurgeon said that his most prolific and highest honor was when he had the chance to teach the young men at his Pastor's College which he founded in London at the famed Metropolitan Baptist Tabernacle. His famous LECTURES TO MY STUDENTS has been read and studied by many preachers down through the years.

This smaller book on pastoral ministry is often overlooked. AN ALL-AROUND MINISTRY (proper title) is a wonderful addition to LECTURES TO MY STUDENTS. In this work Spurgeon gives practical advice to young preachers concerning the work of the ministry. His desire is to simply glorify God in all that we say or do (Colossians 3:17). Spurgeon's heart pours out from every topic from speaking to prayer. A great book not only for Bible teachers but for all disciples as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars All-round good reading..., September 29, 2005

By	A. S. Young (University of North Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book delivers exactly what it promises, "...biblical exposition, wise counsel, practical sanity and warm exhortation." And while reading full-length sermons may seem dull to some, let those skeptics go to work on this collection. Charles Spurgeon brings such a passion to the words that one doesn't merely read them, but listens to Spurgeon shout them from behind a pulpit and is brought into a comfortable family of believers (being his Pastor's College). It's a must-read for the mature Christian (especially if he is being called into the ministry).
