Description
DEREK PRIME
No one had greater influence for the good of evangelicalism in the nineteen century than Charles Simeon. Amazingly his influence remains, not least in his endurance under opposition and his encouragement and training of young men to teach and preach. Many men like John Stott acknowledge their indebtedness to Simeon’s example and the pattern he set for expository ministry.
The book aims to be more than a biography. Rather, its purpose is to identify and share the teaching Simeon gave concerning preaching and its purpose, and the importance of training young men.
It outlines the concern for the Jewish people Christians should have (a subject of contemporary neglect) and the importance of establishing the principle of balance, whether discussing election and human responsibility or any other issue that sadly divides Christians. He explained how often the truth is to be found not in one extreme or the other, or even in the middle, but in both extremes at once.
