C.H. Spurgeon: The People's Preacher (BD)

An innocent country lad from the Fens goes to London to preach. There he earns the love and respect of a nation as one of its most influential figures. But his strong principles run against the grain of the culture and, in standing up for them, he becomes isolated, ridiculed by the media -- and broken-hearted. This powerful, inspirational drama/documentary includes re-enactments and faithfully recreates the times of C.H. Spurgeon to bring the "people's preacher" to life. Made by the award-winning Christian Television Association and filmed on location in England, Scotland, France and Germany, this film vividly captures the spirit and message of a man whose eventful -- and sometimes controversial -- life is highly relevant to the 21st century. This Blu-ray features the official "C.H. Spurgeon: The People's Preacher" trailer, exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, special look inside the making of this film, "A Closer Look" and English subtitles for the deaf and hearing-impaired.
