Morning and Evening is a fantastic devotional for the heart of every believer. I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to begin and end their day with spiritual encouragement and instruction. Spurgeon, the "prince of preachers" delivers his depth and love for Christ.

This is an edited version of Spurgeon’s devotions from the 1800′s. A classic loved by scholars and laymen, it’s one of those devotions that can be used over and over again. And how you use it depends on how much personal devotion time you have carved out of the day for yourself.

To get the full Spurgeon effect, your dose for the day would be reading a page-long devotion in the morning, another one in the evening, memorizing one Bible text, and reading a significant portion of the Bible More...

One could never go wrong with Charles Spurgeon, a prolific author and pastor who lived from 1834-1892, "Mornings & Evenings" is a 768, softbound, 5.5 x 8.5, book that opens flat, to help one start each morning, with a personal devotional time.

What I enjoy the most, about reading this book, isn't just the fact about reading the thoughts and encouragement of Mr. Spurgeon, but the encouragement he provided by a choice of either focusing on a passage or doing a quick study in a b More...

This book isn't for everybody, but if you've read quite a bit of the Bible and like beautiful language and thoughts, you might give it a try. Here is the morning reading for December 29 as a sample:

“Hitherto hath the Lord helped us.”
1 Samuel 7:12

The word “hitherto” seems like a hand pointing in the direction of the past. Twenty years or seventy, and yet, “hitherto the Lord hath helped!” Through poverty, through wealth, through sickness, through health, at home, abro More...

I don’t know how you spend your mornings and evenings, but I’m adding Charles Spurgeon to my daily Bible reading and Oswald Chambers morsel.

David Platt’s book, “Radical,” gives several challenges at the end. One of those challenges is to read the Bible through in the coming year. While I have read the Bible through several times, I loved the idea of reading it through this year with the expectancy that God will reveal new things.

I recently received Charles Spurgeon’s devotion More...

This devotional offers short but powerful insights into the Word of God. Especially during those times when it seems like my own connection with the Word is running dry, this has really helped to pick me up and bring me to a place of repentance and restoration to God's grace and the joy of salvation.

my current daily devotional

old-fashioned in a good way -- Christ-centered, passionate about Jesus, focused on how Jesus fulfills what may seem to be minor passages of Scripture. It encourages gratitude and devotion to Jesus.

Spurgeon is a beautiful writer, too -- poetic language and imagery.

This challenging devotional book gives Spurgeon's reaction to verses. His practical application of biblical principles to a believer's daily walk encourages and builds faith in Jesus, THE Saviour and his desire to be involved in our lives. I'm still reading this...every morning and evening!

Through college I read one of these most mornings and some evenings. It really helped keep me focused on what really matters in life. Well written and thought-provoking.

I LOVE his "flowery" speech! This is my all time favorite devotional book. I've read it through over and over and will continue to for the rest of my life.

This is one of the best devotional books ever. It is very useful when seeking to establish regular prayer and reading times.

I've met with Mr. Spurgeon almost every morning and evening for five years now and I can't tell you where I'd be without this grace-filled devotional.

Wonderful, short but theologically deep devotions that are as timely today as when Spurgeon wrote them. Some may find the language a bit difficult now and then, but it's well worth it!

I did enjoy this book of daily devotions by Spurgeon, but after reading this I find reading an entire sermon more helpful than little tidbits. Part of the problem could be that I read Morning and Evening like a regular book, rather than day by day. If you're able to discipline yourself in reading it like a devotional than I would suggest getting this book, otherwise I would recommend getting the collection of Spurgeon sermons.

This book is a wonderful devotional book that I read alongside my Bible. Charles Spurgeon has some great thoughts and wisdom in this book. Every day, there is a morning reading and an evening reading. For each day, Spurgeon takes a verse from the Bible and expounds on it. Very good.

This book was compiled to provide a morning devotion and an evening devotion for each day of the year. I read it almost every evening last year, but almost never in the morning.
There is much wisdom. The occasional stabs at "papery" were disconcerting.
