EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 19th century photograph captures the historic sites associated with the life and ministry of Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892), one of the most influential and popular preachers in Christian history. Spurgeon, known as the "Prince of Preachers," began his preaching career at the age of 16 and went on to pastor London's Metropolitan Tabernacle for over 30 years, delivering sermons to crowds of up to 10,000 people. The photograph includes several significant places related to Spurgeon's life. In the foreground, the Metropolitan Tabernacle, located in Newington, London, is visible with its distinctive red brick façade and tall spire. This was the pulpit from which Spurgeon preached to thousands each week, and where his sermons were recorded and distributed worldwide. To the left, the Tabernacle Schoolroom is shown, where Spurgeon held Sunday School classes for over 2,000 children. The building's high ceilings and large windows allowed for a spacious and welcoming atmosphere. In the background, the Surrey Gardens Music Hall can be seen, a venue where Spurgeon held evangelistic meetings in the late 1850s. These meetings drew large crowds, and many came to faith in Christ under Spurgeon's powerful preaching. The photograph also includes a view of the Thames River, which runs along the southern edge of London. Spurgeon often walked along the riverbank to clear his mind and pray, finding inspiration for his sermons in the beauty of God's creation. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of Charles Spurgeon and the places that shaped his remarkable ministry during the 19th century.
