Men of Faith 

Born in South Africa, Andrew Murray (1828-1917) was sent to study in Scotland at age ten. When he returned to South Africa as a pastor and evangelist, he led a revival that shook the country.Murray's lifetime of work to deepen the spiritual life of Christians has touched the church worldwide through the legacy of his profound writing, including With Christ in the School of Prayer, Abide in Christ, and Raising Your Children for Christ. Less well-known is his involvement in church/state relations, theological debates, and the founding of universities. Murray's solidly biblical theology and fiery spiritual life made him a driving force behind the revivals of his day and a model of faithfulness for ours.Originally published by Bethany House as part of their "Men of Faith" series, this book is an edited version of a doctoral dissertation done at Gordon-Conwell Seminary intended to help people meet the man behind some of the most beloved devotional classics of our time. - from Amzon
