Description
"Was Mccheyne for real?"
"Was he just famous because he died so young?"
"Does he have anything to teach us today?"
"The freshest presentation of McCheyne available." -- Ligon Duncan, Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi
"Having used Robert Murray McCheyne's 1842 Bible Reading Calendar for many years, and having admired his hunger for holiness, I am very glad that David Robertson has written this new biography." -- John Stott, Rector Emeritus, All Souls Church, Langham Place, London, UK
In this book, David Robertson, the present-day minister of McCheyne's church, St Peter's in Dundee, Scotland, seeks to answer these and other questions. Through the use of published sermons, private papers and historical material, this contemporary devotional biography traces McCheyne's life and influence from his upbringing, conversion and training for the ministry to the revival that occurred in St Peter's in 1839 and his early death.
The contemporary relevance of McCheyne for today's church is demonstrated and the glory of God is seen in this wonderful story of what He can do with one 'consecrated sinner'.
Author David Robertson is pastor of St Peter's Free Church of Scotland, Dundee.
