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.

Murray addresses people who earnestly seek salvation but have not yet come to faith, presenting faith in Jesus as the sole way to salvation and a gift nurtured through God’s Word. Opening with Christ’s words in Mark 16:16, he explores faith’s object, beginnings, struggles, and fruit, calling readers to repent, trust God’s promises, receive Christ, and surrender themselves to him.
