A friend once said to Archibald Brown that the sermons he found most helpful and enjoyable were simple sermons. 'What do you mean by a simple sermon?', his pastor replied. The answer was, 'One that is all about the Lord.' This book contains many of Archibald Brown's outstanding sermons on the Person and Work of Christ. It takes the reader to the heart of Brown's ministry with an attractiveness and relevance that will never dim.

Author
Archibald Geikie Brown (1844-1922) was impressed in boyhood under the ministry of C. H. Spurgeon in the Surrey Music Hall and Exeter Hall, but was actually led to decision for Christ through a personal appeal made to him by S. A. Blackwood. His name became a household word in East London, and the Tabernacle witnessed many memorable scenes—none, perhaps, more remarkable than the great Saturday evening prayer meetings which formed a fitting prelude to Sundays of grace and power.
