A Pastor's Sketches consists of private conversations had by the author with individuals concerned about their souls. Spencer made it a practice to record his conversations of this nature in order to assist him in his pastoral work. These two volumes (now published together) were selected from those records both to provide an example for others and also to deal publicly with a very wide range of objections to the Christian message.
Each encounter demonstrates faithfulness, love and patience with concerned souls. His methods are extremely faithful to Scripture and his zeal for the glory of Christ is as clear as his dependence on the guidance and help of the Holy Spirit.
"Spencer is a master at flushing sinners out of hiding and directing them to Jesus Christ for salvation through Spirit-worked, simple faith... A Pastor's Sketches is a compelling read for pastors and Christian workers; its pages contain the nuts and bolts of biblical evangelism, taught via authentic dialogues."
- Joel Beeke
