Spurgeon & Open Air Preaching

Ed RomineHebrews 13:7

Drawing on Hebrews 13:7's command to remember and follow faithful ministers, this lecture examines the life, preaching, and open-air ministry of Charles Haddon Spurgeon as a model for gospel proclamation. The speaker presents material from his published doctoral dissertation on Spurgeon's open-air preaching, working through three open-air sermons and Spurgeon's own pedagogy for street evangelism. A recurring application presses the listener — whatever their theological sophistication — to proclaim the excellencies of Christ to all people, including the lowest and most despised.
