Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Sermons for Farmers Charles Haddon Spurgeon

When one looks at many sermons preached in the Scripture, especially by the Lord Jesus Himself, it cannot be avoided that those sermons used much of the agricultural metaphors and imagery. In fact, the Bible speaks much about spiritual things by using farm and common life language. Think about Jesus's parables of the sowing and harvesting. In that same way, Charles Spurgeon, the prince of preachers, used farm language in his own sermons, which made them plain and clear to any of his many hearers. SERMONS FOR FARMERS (originally published in 1882 under the title of "Farm Sermons") includes 19 messages inspired by Bible passages on farming and life on a farm that would definitely be a source of joy and growth in Christ for any Christian. This book has been originally published in 1882. This edition has been edited for modern readers, typeset for eBook readers, and proofread.
