This devotional is really, really good. Just when I thought I knew all of Spurgeon’s gems, J.A. Medders has gone to the treasure chest and brought out some more. Read this to enjoy C.H. Spurgeon at his very best and to fix your eyes on Jesus.
In Jeff Medders’ The Risen King, we have the opportunity to taste Charles Spurgeon’s writings as renewed wine in new wineskins. These fresh devotionals have a high trinitarian focus and enable us to worship God in Spirit and truth while clearly pointing to Jesus, our Redeemer. Medders masterfully regenerates Spurgeon’s voice with a tone refreshingly asserting that Spurgeon still speaks to us today.
Charles Spurgeon is without question one of my favorite preachers of all time: profoundly Christ-centered, warmly experiential, and delightfully practical. Seldom is my soul not deeply stirred after reading and pondering one of his sermons. Of the nearly 4,000 sermons that Spurgeon preached in his lifetime, Jeff Medders has adapted 75 of Spurgeon’s choice messages on the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus into 40 savory devotionals, each of which ends with heart-searching, reflective questions and prayers which foster meditation, application, and doxology. The selections in this volume are not only ideal for preparation in the season before Easter but are applicable for every part of the year as well. I am confident that after reading this devotional, you will want more of Spurgeon—and above all, more of the Christ whom this ‘prince of preachers’ so beautifully proclaimed.
