A Word from Dr. Jason Allen

Dr. Jason Allen, President, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

"As owners of the Spurgeon Library, Midwestern enjoys a singular stewardship to our students, our denomination, and the church at large. The Charles Spurgeon Lectures on Biblical Preaching equip preachers and gospel ministers and fulfill our mission to exist for the church. The goal of the lectures is to equip attendees and serve the church by speaking on and modeling expositional preaching."
