Description
What enables a woman to be a genuine "contender for the faith"? For one, she must have a deep devotion and love for the Savior. Susannah Spurgeon, wife of the man known in the 19th century as "The Prince of Preachers" - Charles H. Spurgeon - was a beautiful example of just such a woman.
First published in 1901, her book A Basket of Summer Fruit is a collection of sweet writings bearing the fruit of her love for Christ over the duration of a lengthy walk with God. Written eight years after her husband's death, in her widowhood Mrs. Spurgeon carried on her husband's determination to be a blessing to readers.
Her devotional thoughts are valuable reading for all believers, not just ladies. Theologically rich and devotionally sweet, the writings of this book include:
* Thanksgiving Street
* Our Great Adversary
* God's Glory in the Wilderness
* A Paradox of Providence
* Faith's Sufficiency
* The Shadow of God's Wings
* The Night Watcher
* Walking in the Spirit
* Grievous Inconsistency
* Divine Uplifting
* A Feast for the Fainting
* The Sight of Sights
* The Spotless Spouse
* Charles Spurgeon's Motto
In these chapters, Mrs. Spurgeon covers a host of valuable topics for us, teaching us to cultivate a heart of praise for God, submit to His grace in times of suffering, pursue cross-bearing and personal holiness, and to know God as our Father and His Son as our heavenly bridegroom.
