Around the Wicket Gate: Audiobook Edition
About this audiobook
In Around the Wicket Gate, Charles H. Spurgeon speaks directly to those who have begun to consider the claims of the Christian faith but still hesitate to place their trust fully in Jesus Christ.
Drawing on the imagery of John Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress, Spurgeon pictures the seeking soul standing near the wicket gate—the entrance to the way of life—yet held back by doubts, fears, misunderstandings, and questions about faith and salvation. With characteristic warmth, urgency, humor, and pastoral insight, he seeks to remove those obstacles and direct the listener to Christ alone.
Across eleven chapters, Spurgeon explores spiritual awakening, the simplicity of faith, the person and work of Jesus Christ, the fear of believing, difficulties that hinder faith, the meaning of Christ’s saving work, the danger of endless questioning, and the necessity of trusting Christ for salvation.
Carefully prepared for audiobook presentation by GH Editions, this edition preserves Spurgeon’s historic text and the distinctive character of his original teaching while presenting the work in a clear and accessible listening format.
Around the Wicket Gate remains a compassionate and deeply practical invitation for seekers, new believers, and Christians who wish to understand more clearly the relationship between faith, grace, Christ, and salvation.
A classic work on Christian faith and the way of salvation, faithfully prepared for a new generation of listeners.
