C.H. Spurgeon Conference - Part 1

Dr. Ed Romine shares his scholarly work on the open-air preaching of C.H. Spurgeon in three parts with Q&A

This conference centers on Charles Spurgeon's Christ-centered interpretation of the Psalms, emphasizing their theological depth and enduring relevance for the church. Through a close reading of Psalm 1 and Psalm 2, the speaker highlights Spurgeon's conviction that true blessing comes only through union with Christ, the ultimate blessed man, and that the ungodly, though temporarily powerful, will never inherit God's kingdom. Spurgeon's commentary reveals a robust theology of divine sovereignty, where Christ's reign is already established despite earthly opposition, and where believers find joy and security in the unthwartable rule of God. The preacher underscores the pastoral and practical implications of this truth: Christians are called to live in separation from sin, to delight in Christ, and to trust in His present and future victory. Ultimately, the message calls the audience to deepen their love for Christ, honor the legacy of faithful ministers like Spurgeon, and be strengthened in their ministry by the enduring power of God's Word.
