Does anyone know where this book by James Spurgeon can be purchased or downloaded?
 
Yeah, didn't think this literary work was quite worth that.... :)
 
I think if you go to Bob Gray's website and ask him he would know.  ;D

OH MY GOODNESS! You do not know how tempted I am to go to his facebook page and ask where I can buy a copy of this book!
 
I believe holycall is no longer working that was closed a few years ago.
 
Is James Spurgeon's book true?

He uses several real-life names, explaining that his lawyer told him that if the person sued, the person would have to prove that the incident isn't true. No lawsuits yet.

Going over various blogs and forums a while back, as well as today, I cannot find a single post from anyone stating that Spurgeon is lying.

Last year (or about that time) Barnes and Noble started selling the book. That company is well worth suing, and there have been no lawsuits yet.

I found one old post from someone who claimed to have been a student at the time, and he claims that he participated in some of the activities in the book, and that the book's report on those activities is accurate.

One poster claimed that Bob Gray was speaking in her church, and someone confronted Gray about the book's accusations. She claims that Gray expressed sorrow over Spurgeon's attitude.
 
I enjoyed reading the book and hearing the stories.

I liked the line...Fundy Stylin' and Sinner Profilin'
 
Vince I believe it is sadly

James Spurgeon claims that everything is true - but recall that he was writing about events some time in the past, and anyone can have faulty recollection.  I, personally, believe that all the events are true, although there may be some minor details that are incorrect.

I find that  very hard to believe; Bob Gray (Sr, I assume) probably was angry; I believe that he has claimed that the book is full of lies, but he won't get specific.
 
There were two stories in James Spurgeon's book that I found useful.

He claims that Bob Gray told a college group that it is always sinful to correct the sins of the pastor, even if he is guilty. The students were surprised, and some objected. But Gray insisted that when God calls you to leadership, your underlings are not allowed to correct you.

IF Jack Hyles believed that (and I never heard him say it), it would explain much of what happened at HAC.
 
There was another famous person who had this line of thinking....
