Around The Wicket Gate: Urging Convicted Souls to Trust Christ

Rate this book
What’s keeping you from entering?

Do you feel too sinful—so stained by your past that you dare not hope for mercy?
Are you obsessed with the law, always measuring, never resting?
Do you endlessly search yourself, staring into the mirror of your soul, hoping to find some sign of worth?
Or are you like the one who searches the Scriptures, pouring over every word—yet never coming to Christ Himself?

On the cover of Around the Wicket Gate, each figure tells a story. One is crushed by despair, believing he’s too wicked to be saved. Another clings to the tablets of the law, as though righteousness can be earned. A third stares into a mirror, lost in self-examination. One pores over Scripture, yet refuses to come to the Savior they point to (John 5:39).

And then there is one who finally steps through the gate, walking the narrow path toward the Celestial City.

Which one are you?

Charles Spurgeon wrote this little book for those who are still outside the gate—still hesitating, still bound by fear, doubt, or pride. He pleads with you to stop lingering. The gate is open. Christ is calling.
