A unique insight into the history of the Metropolitan Tabernacle detailing its struggles in times of persecution, the lives of its earliest pastors and a snapshot of the immense activity that supported the renowned preaching ministry of C. H. Spurgeon. Told with Spurgeon’s characteristic humour and peppered with pointed anecdotes, this work should be read by all Christians as a means of inspiring renewed commitment and service, such as was once the standard in the churches of our predecessors.
Other editions omit the final chapters; this edition is complete and includes the numerous pictures in the original book.
