"Charles Simeon was the most influential evangelical in the age of
Wilberforce--a powerful influence over successive generations of
Cambridge ordinands. Here is an attractive vignette of a great
preacher and a great man."
--David Bebbington, Professor of History, University of
Stirling
"Charles Simeon's commitment to expository preaching, personal
godliness, and global mission is inspiring. I pray it will continue
to influence evangelical ministry for generations to come."
--Vaughan Roberts, Rector, St Ebbe's Church, Oxford
"Charles Simeon's galvanizing life can be summed up by his passion:
'to know nothing among you save Jesus Christ and Him crucified.'
Julia Cameron's accessible introduction allows us to taste of
Simeon's devotion to prayer, preaching, and future generations.
Cameron gives us a marvelous framework of Simeon, his essence as a
follower of Jesus, and an essential, compressed narrative to
appreciate Simeon's role in how God advances His work in this
world."
--Benjamin K. Homan, President, Langham Partnership USA (formerly
John Stott Ministries)
"Julia Cameron's short book is a good introduction to Charles
Simeon of Cambridge, whose decades-long commitment to excellent
preaching powerfully influenced the early nineteenth-century
English Church struggling for relevance in a society both ignorant
and contemptuous of biblical Christianity. This book will thus
encourage today's Christians everywhere. Her emphasis that renewed
vitality in the church is inseparable from commitment both to
biblically faithful theology and to the global Church is welcome
and timely."
--Steven Van Dyck, Executive Director, Langham Partnership Canada
