<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Everyday advice based on biblical faith</b> <br> Charles H. Spurgeon's success as a legendary preacher and author was generated from his intense love and concern for "working people." In <i>John Ploughman's Talks</i>, Spurgeon assumes the persona of a simple ploughman to dispense advice and address serious moral issues in the language of the common man. Spurgeon's homespun humor and rustic illustrations reflect on a variety of issues, such as idleness, grumbling, appearance, patience, gossiping, debt, spending, family, hope, and much more. <br> In Spurgeon's words, "That I have written in a semi-humorous vein needs no apology, since thereby sound moral teaching has gained a hearing....There is no particular virtue in being seriously unreadable." <br> In the tradition of John Bunyan's <i>Pilgrim's Progress</i>, Spurgeon's tale is destined to be enjoyed for generations by people of all ages and backgrounds. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Charles. H. Spurgeon</b> (1834-1892), the "Prince of Preachers," preached his first sermon at age sixteen. During his lifetime, he preached to an estimated ten million people. He founded and supported charitable outreaches, including educational institutions. He also founded a pastors' college and the famous Stockwell Orphanage. Spurgeon published over two thousand of his sermons, as well as numerous books. Highlighted with splashes of spontaneous, delightful humor, his teachings still provide direction to all who are seeking true joy and genuine intimacy with God. <br>
