It was the first complete and enduring order of daily praise and prayer in European Christendom.For fourteen hundred years it has voiced the worship of an ever-increasing circle of devout men and women. It came to England with St. Augustine, the first Archbishop of Canterbury, and it was the Prayer Book of those who more than any other group of Religious formed and influenced the Church of England men such as St. Wilfrid, St. Benedict Biscop, the Venerable Bede, St. Dunstan, St. Anselm. The Monastic Office was planned from the first for busy men, working at both mental and manual labour.

Encounter with Spurgeon


Helmut Thielicke - 1963
    Spurgeon, Helmut Thielicke expresses his surprise and delight at his discovery of the great Victorian preacher. He draws out those qualities which made Spurgeon one of the most influential ministers of his day, and explains what it was that attracted the university professor to the self-educated Baptist preacher. Primarily, they share recognition of the urgency of their message: 'We stand in need of the simply way in which Spurgeon dares to say that what really and ultimately counts is to save sinners.' Warmth, immediacy and directness are the hallmarks of Spurgeon; qualities which Thielicke's own remarkable sermons share, but which he feels much modern preaching lacks. It is a convincing testament to Spurgeon's continuing vitality and relevance that Thielicke, one of the great modern preachers, should say: 'Sell all that you have ... and buy Spurgeon.'
