Spurgeon on Revival

Book excerpt: Mr. Hayden points out that the key to the revival which arose under Spurgeon's ministry, and went on almost continuously throughout his long and fruitful pulpit career, is to be found in Spurgeon's autobiography. There, Spurgeon reveals and credits the membership of his new Park Street Chapel and their earnest, all-out prayer for his success in the ministry. This documented study of Spurgeon's emphasis upon and attitude toward revival will reward today's reader with insight into and understanding of our need for revival today--and the only source from which this revival can come. A prayerful reading of these pages could well result in renewed and revitalized Christian living among God's people today.
