Outro - A Good Start

Free Christian Audiobooks (Aneko Press)

Mr. Spurgeon was emphatically the friend of the young. During the course of his successful and God-honored ministry, his supreme aim was to lead children and youth to Christ and to encourage and stimulate them in their aspirations after true nobility. Now that his voice is hushed, his powerful pen still speaks. In this book, with persuasive earnestness and characteristic force, he shows those who are standing upon the threshold of life how to make A Good Start. It is impossible to overestimate the importance of the start we make in the journey of life since it necessarily affects and largely determines all that follows. No life can be truly success¬ful unless lived along the lines of Christian principles. The first step must be surrendering the heart to Christ, and all of life’s journey must be lived in conscious fellowship with Him. In this way, we form true perceptions of life and duty, and are enabled to give practical embodiment to God’s idea concerning us. It is during this character-forming time of life that wise counsel, faithful warning, and sympathetic admonition are especially valuable. Charles Haddon (C. H.) Spurgeon (1834-1892) was a British Baptist preacher. He started preaching at age 16 and quickly became famous. He is still known as the “Prince of Preachers” and frequently had more than 10,000 people present to hear him preach at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London. His sermons were printed in newspapers, translated into many languages, and published in many books.
