About MeThis flatback figurine depicts Spurgeon standing at a pulpit wearing a white robe with his right hand raised.

Charles Haddon (C.H.) Spurgeon (1834 – 31 January ) was a British Particular Baptist preacher. Spurgeon remains highly influential among Christians of different denominations, among whom he is known as the "Prince of Preachers". He was a strong figure in the Reformed Baptist tradition, defending the Church in agreement with the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith understanding, and opposing the liberal and pragmatic theological tendencies in the Church of his day.
