Andrew Murray (1828–1917) was a South African pastor and writer in the Dutch Reformed Church. Educated in Scotland and the Netherlands, he served congregations at Bloemfontein, Worcester, Cape Town, and Wellington, and was six times moderator of his church. Murray wrote some 240 books on prayer and the deeper Christian life; our library holds Abide in Christ, With Christ in the School of Prayer, Absolute Surrender, and The Prayer Life.

Andrew Murray's meditations on John 15, first published in 1882, written to help believers live in unbroken fellowship with Christ. Taking the image of the vine and the branches, Murray unfolds what it means to abide: in surrender, in obedience, in love, and in fruitfulness. Gentle and searching, it has been a beloved guide to the interior life for generations.
