When C. H Spurgeon spoke at communion meetings they were often times of great solemnity, sometimes of rejoicing but always times when God’s presence was at work within the hearts of the assembled congregation.
Spurgeon was not only a great orator but he was also a man with a warm pastoral heart. To him the times together around the Lord’s table were when both features of his ministry came together. A moment of shared rejoicing and an opportunity to urge the congregation to think more deeply about the great event they were celebrating.
