, 1847–1894

Overview

Alongside his devotion to God and the dedication he demonstrated as a pastor, Robert Murray McCheyne also had a passion for words. In the first 2 of this 4-volume set, the reader is afforded extensive insight into this evangelist wordsmith’s memoir and private letters, sermons, lectures, poetry, and more.

A man of great conviction and courage, McCheyne often battled illness during his short, 29 year life span. Despite his health, he was still able to travel to Palestine on a Missionary trip at the behest of the Church of Scotland. A year after he returned, he penned (along with close friend Andrew Alexander Bonar) a grand account of their adventure, Narrative of a Mission of Inquiry to the Jews from the Church of Scotland in 1839, which is the 3rd volume in this extraordinary set.

Key Features

• Detailed table of contents
• Places and dates of delivery are marked at the close of each sermon
• Detailed Preface by author

Praise for the Print Edition

His brief ministry of seven-and-a-half years 'stamped an indelible impress on Scotland,' and though he died in his twenty-ninth year, more was wrought by him that will last for eternity than most accomplish in a lifetime.

—Iain Murray

The memoirs have an excellent section on his thoughts on personal prayer and holiness. The sermons are meaty and Spirit inspired. His letters open up the heart of a man branded for the Lord Jesus, who is full of faith, hope, and love. Frankly, they should issue this book to every man entering seminary.
