Great Truth

This is an excellent introduction to Andrew Murray's work. When I was looking for resources to pursue intimacy with God, I was advised to read "anything by Andrew Murray". This is a compilation of several short, easy to read but very profound works. This author talks about "real Christianity" and pursuing a very real God.

Makes Me Want to Be a Better Believer!

I never considered myself a "cryer." However, this book is blessed and it moves you in a lot of different ways. First, the topic and the promise of the book. Second, the wonderfully worded insights, "catch phrases," and challenges to faithfulness. Finally, the unshakable faith, vision, and comfort Andrew Murray so spiritually calls us to. His words inspire rather than chastise. They make us want to look up, rather than hang our heads. They make us want to BE better! Take this book into your "morning watch" quiet time, read, meditate, take it to heart and enjoy the blessing of the presence of God. Murray takes us into God's presence like no other writer - outside the scriptures themself.

The Practice of God's Presence

This book takes the best of Murray's works and places them in a sequential reading order that brings home the truths of the Christian faith in a powerful, life changing way. Andrew Murray states Biblical truths in a simple, yet profound way that cut through theological jargon. Truth moves from the head to the heart through his anointed writing. This is a must book for any believer serious about being conformed to the image of Jesus.

How Can Murray Do Better?

He can't. He is superb. He distills to bare essences the way to a Holy life in Christ, but his prescriptions are not easy. If you want fluff, Murray is not the man to read. As with his other books, he holds True Believers to the standards Jesus Himself holds them to. As any Christian knows, this is NOT the easy Way. Better still, Murray asks the same questions we ask, then, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, gives the answers. His book, "The Holiest of Holies" is the best book on the New Testament book of Hebrews I've ever read and is the basis for the perfect Bible study. Buy anything he has written and you will hold in your hands a fine literary and spiritual work.

LIFE CHANGING!

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who craves for a closer, deeper and true relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Praise God for such servants as Andrew Murray! He was truly, a man of God! God Bless!
