In this episode of the Broken Wharfe Podcast, host John Mark is joined by Dr. Brandon Rhea to discuss C. H. Spurgeon's life, ministry, and theology of the Sabbath. Dr. Rhea, a pastor and scholar, shares insights into Spurgeon's Victorian context, confessional theology, personal life, and ministry challenges. He delves into Spurgeon's emphasis on the Christian Sabbath, his strong convictions about God's law, and his dedication to a high doctrine of Christian worship on the Sabbath Day. The conversation also touches upon contemporary lessons from Spurgeon's ministry, highlighting the importance of maintaining doctrinal clarity, the need for corporate worship, confessions of faith and faithfulness to Jesus Christ despite the many temptations to prioritize pragmatic success over obedience to the Lord.Brandon Rhea is author of "Spurgeon's Forgotten Sabbatarianism: The Fourth Commandment in the Life and Theology of the Prince of Preachers" - available on sale today !00:00 Welcome to the Broken Wharfe Podcast00:42 Introducing Dr. Brandon Rhea01:56 Dr. Rhea's Journey with Spurgeon07:36 Spurgeon's Victorian Context15:56 Spurgeon's Theology of the Sabbath21:15 Spurgeon's Commitment to Sound Doctrine30:20 The Importance of Gathering for Worship36:25 Spurgeon's Conversion Story39:16 Reflections on Worship During COVID42:25 Closing Thoughts and Next Episode PreviewSend us a textContact Broken Wharfe Tweet us @Brokenwharfe Find us on Facebook at BrokenWharfe Follow us on Instagram at BrokenWharfe Email us at [email protected] Thanks for listening!
