The Spurgeon Library at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary has become the primary location for Spurgeon scholarship. It contains the bulk of Spurgeon’s personal library — more than 6,000 volumes — as well as artifacts from his life, such as his preaching rail, his writing desk, and even pews from the church where he was converted.
The Spurgeon Library recently acquired the Spurgeon Heritage Collection, adding many more of his writings and personal belongings, including personal letters, minutes from the Pastors’ College, hundreds of newspaper clippings, as well as manuscripts from his sermons and books – plus many personal items and artifacts.
On this episode of the Spurgeon Legacy Podcast, you’ll hear from Spurgeon Library curator Geoff Chang about the items they have, how they go about preserving and sharing them with a new generation, and why Spurgeon’s legacy remains to this day. We’ll also discuss his latest book release, Christ Our All: Poems for the Christian Pilgrim, a newly gathered collection of Spurgeon’s poetry.
