John Ploughman's Talk Plan: Advice for Plain People By C.H. Spurgeon
This little book of simple practical advice from on of the most effective and beloved preachers of all time is a wonderful read. For a book written over a hundred years ago it still hold gems that are very relevant to our lives today. This book is easy to read and written from the perspective of John Ploughman, a simple man who give straightforward advice. No beating around the bush or pandering to the desires of the reader, just honest practical advice for living out your life. There is also plenty of Spurgeon's trademark humor in this book as well. I heartily recommend this book.
Random Quote: (page 66)
Husbands should try to make home happy and holy. It is an ill bird that fouls its own nest, a bad man makes his home wretched. Our house ought to be a little church, with holiness to the Lord over the door, but it ought never to be a prison where there is plenty of rule and order, but little of love and no pleasure
