Susannah Spurgeon: Lessons for a Life of Joyful Eagerness in Christ (Mary K. Mohler)

Description Product Details Susannah Spurgeon Lessons for a Life of Joyful Eagerness in Christ Have you heard of Spurgeon? Preacher, evangelist and stalwart patriarch of the Modern Western Church today. If the cliché ‘behind every great man is a strong woman’, is true, then Susannah Spurgeon remains one of the matriarchs of the same tradition. Spurgeon was the bone companion of her husband. As a pastoral assistant, as Charles’ wife and support through trials, this woman’s biography has been a long time coming. Mary Mohler has gathered information on Susie from sources spanning letters, devotionals and biographies. The result is a thoughtful, sympathetic and endearing epitaph to a sister in Christ, whose voice can no longer be ignored. Mohler allows room for academics, mothers, daughters and wives to dwell on Spurgeon’s joyful eagerness in Christ. Endorsements: I think it is exactly what Mrs. Spurgeon would have hoped to be done with God’s work in her life. This is my favourite book on Susannah Spurgeon.
