    About this audiobook

    Charles Spurgeon is one of the most famous preachers to ever live. In this book, though, he strips his speech of big words and lofty expressions in order to better address the general public. John Ploughman’s Talk is practical advice for Christian living. In speaking to the ploughman, Spurgeon himself takes up the task of plowing the uncultivated land to make virtue and learning accessible to all.

    Charles Spurgeon

    Charles H. Spurgeon (1834–1892) was an English Baptist pastor at New Park Street Chapel, London (which later became the Metropolitan Tabernacle), for thirty-eight years. As the nineteenth century's most prolific preacher and writer, his ministry legacy continues today.
