spencer1Ichabod Spencer was the pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn Heights in the early 1800′s. He was a man after God’s own heart. He preached faithfully the Doctrines of Grace and cared tenderly for the flock of God. He took the time out of his busy schedule to commit himself to the duties that God had called him to which was “shepherd the flock of God”.  He made approximately 700 home visits per year to encourage and strengthen the members of his Church.  Despite his constant bouts with sickness and pain he poured out his life to bring many souls to Christ.   His Church experienced a True Revival and many souls came to the Saving Grace of God through his preaching and ministry in Downtown Brooklyn.
He was known as, “The Bunyan of Brooklyn.”

“Dr. Ichabod Spencer, one of the most able
and faithful pastors America ever had”

R.A. Torrey
