He reflects on the highs and lows of his time in the ministry, noting that, “When I have labored most for [God’s] glory, I have feasted most on the provisions of his grace.” Spurgeon mirrors the tone of the New Testament’s epistolary books, his words full of encouragements and entreaties alike for his Christian brothers.

Considered a cornerstone of modern Christian theology, Charles Spurgeon’s All of Grace is an exploration into the way Christians envision themselves. While many people see themselves as strong, Spurgeon argues that if humans were strong there would have been no need for Jesus to have sacrificed himself. The actions of Jesus were shrouded in a love of the weakness of humanity, and to Spurgeon that truth was being further shrouded by modern pride. The book itself was a call to Christianity to look at repentance as a gift and to accept its grace into their lives.

In this classic by Charles Spurgeon, the preacher wishes to set the record straight on his discussion of eccentric preachers. He discusses many of the most famous preachers, and how they have their own eccentricities. To be a great preacher is to often be "a little far from center".
