Spurgeon's Cigar: December 2014
http://spurgeonscigar.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

An academic and contemplative life demands frequent isolation, and the person so "geared" would be frustrated indeed without the solace of silence. But I must look to Jesus as my example here who, despite His need for sacred hours of devout aloneness, almost daily subjected Himself to the whirling vortex of social engagement. The.
